Yes, it is. Both the location of the header files and of the library
files are located. I get an error using scons when the dev-packages are
not installed.
Maybe Hatef could run 'python umfpack.py' in
dolfin/scons/simula-scons/simula_scons/pkgconfiggenerators, and include
the output (if any error), as well as the file umfpack.pc that will be
generated in the same folder.
Also, the file dolfin/scons/simula_scons.log could be of interest. It is
generated when using scons in the main dolfin folder.
