[petsc-users] petsc 3.7.4 with superlu_dist install problem

[Satish Balay]

One additional note - there is this option thats thats useful for your use case of downloading tarballs separately..

>>>
$ ./configure --with-packages-dir=$HOME/tmp --download-superlu
===============================================================================
             Configuring PETSc to compile on your system                       
===============================================================================
Download the following packages to /home/balay/tmp 

superlu ['git://https://github.com/xiaoyeli/superlu', 'https://github.com/xiaoyeli/superlu/archive/7e10c8a.tar.gz']

Then run the script again
<<<

It tells you exactly the URLs that you should download - for the
packages that you are installing..
