[petsc-users] Installing Triangle for PETSc by not using --download

[Mike Michell]

Thank you very much. It seems that --download-package={downloaded_dir} is
the right way to let PETSc know the source files and let it configures &
installs everything as it wants.
If I try --with-packages-download-dir, PETSc again tries to connect and get
the external packages from online, which I cannot do.

Thanks,
