Hello,
Sorry for coming back again on dependencies and Debian builds of Fenics/Dolfin.
I see that the packages have been re-built, but now a new problem
shows up; see what happens when I try installing either libdolfin or
libdolfin-dev:

$ sudo apt-get install libdolfin
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libdolfin: Depends: libumfpack4 (>= 4.4-3)
E: Broken packages

$ sudo apt-get install libdolfin-dev

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  libdolfin-dev: Depends: libdolfin (= 0.7.1) but it is not going to
be installed
E: Broken packages

I am using the standard Debian testing repositories, so it is unlikely
that I am the only one experiencing (or about to experience)  this
problem.
Sorry for giving so much trouble, but once this is straightened out,
hopefully I will be able to come up with some more interesting
questions.
Many thanks

Lorenzo
