well, i am currently updating http://www.fenics.org/wiki/A_detailed_guide_to_installing_DOLFIN it is for older systems, or systems without package managers. i have had some questions from people who use some linux distros that are not quite as common.

here, the umfpack from petsc is used.

I cannot figure this one out. To me, it seems that petsc doesn't build
umfpack so that we can use it with dolfin. I am trying to update the wiki with the detailed instructions. The nice feature of using the umfpack that comoes with petsc is that one doesn't need to download and configure/ make
three different packages (umfpack/ amd/ ufconfig).

But UMFPACK comes as a package for all mainstream Linux distributions and for OSX through fink, so why do you want to build it?

A more worthwhile pursuit would be getting PETSc to use the installed UMFPACK. I had a quick go at this, but didn't pursue it.

Will leave this untill someone can tell we what I am doing wrong.

I am trying to use the umfpack that came with petssc. Petsc is configured
as follows:
./config/configure.py --with-mpi-dir=$INSTALL_PATH --with-clanguage=cxx
--download-hypre=yes --enable-hypre=1 --download-umfpack=yes
--enable-umfpack=1 --enable-shared=1

What options do I need to give to scons? I tried setting the variable
UMFPACK_DIR to
$PETSC_DIR/externalpackages/UMFPACKv4.3/linux-gnu-cxx-debug/UMFPACK

I also tried to add
$PETSC_DIR/externalpackages/UMFPACKv4.3/linux-gnu-cxx-debug/UMFPACK/Lib to
LD_LIBRARY_PATH, still without success (Anders thought this wasn't
necessary as petsc was configured with enable-shared). I keep getting a
linking error when running the package config generator:
umfpack_config_test_lib.o: In function `main':

Running 'ar t' on libumfpack.a indicates that it is available. Any hints?
