Failed to configure petsc on a plain snowleopard

 

Hi!

I just wanted to install a fresh FEniCS unstable version on my snowleopard (no mpi tricks this time :) but I ran into a couple of problems. This is the first one:
Despite the fact that petsccore is used in the snowleopard.platform
petsc does the FortranMPICheck and aborting because of the missing mipf90 compiler. I could remedy this by adding --with-fc=0 to the package file but was wondering if somebody else has run into the problem. If so, I would suggest to add the above mentioned flag to the package file.
Here is my error message:
