Using host-petsc

[Miguel Angel Salazar de Troya]

Setting up petsc as host like this
petsc:
  use: host-petsc

gives me this error:

2016/09/12 16:18:53 - INFO: [package:run_job] cp: /Users/salazardetro1/scicomp_libraries/petsc-3.6.3/conf: No such file or directory
2016/09/12 16:18:53 - ERROR: [package:run_job] Command '[u'/bin/bash', '_hashdist/build.sh']' returned non-zero exit status 1
2016/09/12 16:18:53 - ERROR: [package:run_job] command failed (code=1); raising

looking at the yaml file: https://github.com/hashdist/hashstack/blob/master/pkgs/host-petsc.yaml I see that it is assumed there is a directory conf which is inside ${PETSC_DIR}/lib/petsc and not in ${PETSC_DIR}. I tried changing host-petsc.yaml, the line:

bash: | cp -r {{HOST_PETSC_DIR}}/conf ${ARTIFACT}/

for

bash: | cp -r {{HOST_PETSC_DIR}}/lib/petsc/conf ${ARTIFACT}/

but this gave me problems with slepc, I get this error message:

2016/09/13 08:28:24 - INFO: [package:run_job] ERROR: cannot process file /Users/salazardetro1/scicomp_libraries/petsc-3.6.3/include/petscconf.h, maybe you forgot to set PETSC_ARCH

but I do set up PETSC_DIR and PETSC_ARCH in my parameters. All these problems happened because I wasn't able to install petsc with mumps (through hashdist). Mumps needs scalapack, and this fails to compile with the following error message:

2016/09/13 08:25:57 - INFO: [package:run_job] [ 63%] Building C object CMakeFiles/scalapack.dir/SRC/zlamov.c.o

I am on OSX 10.11. I don't understand how I can need the .so library. This is my yaml file (for the downloaded petsc) :

# In the future, we'll provide better incorporation of
# automatic environment detection.  For now, have a look
# at the YAML files in the top-level directory and choose
# the most *specific* file that matches your environment.
