My bad, in your initial message, you mentioned the HYPRE_BoomerAMGSetInterpType() API, but I guess you meant to write HYPRE_BoomerAMGSetAggInterpType()?
This is indeed not interfaced right now, but you could copy what’s currently done for -pc_hypre_boomeramg_interp_type and submit an MR.

Thanks,
Pierre

I see in the BoomerAMG documentation that the appropriate function call would be HYPRE_BoomerAMGSetInterpType. I'd prefer to do it via the options database than put it directly into my code. Adding the -help option, I don't see anything like pc_hypre_boomeramg_agg_interp_type. Could this perhaps be added if there isn't currently a way to do it?
