[petsc-users] Some change in 3.3 about --with-x?

[Jed Brown]

1. Don't use both --with-hypre and --download-hypre. You probably only want
the latter.

2. If you want to use X, you have to install it. PETSc can't install it for
you so there is no --download-x. Look for the development headers in your
package manager.
