[petsc-users] problems after glibc upgrade to 2.17-157

[Klaij, Christiaan]

Well, a bit clearer perhaps. It seems the relevant ERROR is on
line 31039. So I did this case by hand using the compile and link
lines from the log, then run it in gdb:

$ pwd
/tmp/petsc-Q0URwQ/config.setCompilers
$ ls
confdefs.h  conffix.h  conftest  conftest.F  conftest.o

Does this make any sense to you?

So I've applied the patch to my current 3.7.4 source, the new
configure.log is attached. It's slightly larger but not much
clearer too me...

We don't spin 'maint/patch-release' tarballs everynight. Its every 1-3
months - [partly depending upon the number of outstanding patches - or
their severity]
