I am trying to build FEniCS (STABLE_BUILD=false) on Fedora13 with dorsal
and have run into some glitches.  I'm stuck on 3) below, and any help
would be appreciated.

1) The build failed immediately with parmetis, because the location
of version 3.1.1 has moved from
< SOURCE=http://glaros.dtc.umn.edu/gkhome/fetch/sw/parmetis/
to
> SOURCE=http://glaros.dtc.umn.edu/gkhome/fetch/sw/parmetis/OLD/
I updated the SOURCE (probably could have updated the version to 3.2.0
instead).

2) When the ufc build started I got an error message

  You have not informed bzr of your Launchpad ID, and you must do this to
  write to Launchpad or access private data.  See "bzr help launchpad-login".

The build failed, but maybe not for this reason.  Anyway, following the
messages suggestion, I did a bzr launchpad-login before continuing and
the message disappeared.  Perhaps a word about this should be added
to the USAGE or platform files.

3) The ufc build failed with:

Building ufc
ERROR UFC requires SWIG version 2.0 or greater. You have version 1.3.40. Set UFC_ENABLE_PYTHON to 
False or install correct SWIG version.

Seems that I need to set UFC_ENABLE_PYTHON, but I don't know how or where to do that.
