Hi Eric,

Yes, that was my Plan A.  However, I spotted that the package dealii-
openmpi has petsc-openmpi as an input but also mumps-metis-openmpi,
instead of mumps-openmpi.  If the mumps configuration in petsc-mumps-
openmpi is included in petsc-openmpi then dealii-openmpi may not build.
 WDYT?

This would be handy for sure.  I will give it a try.

Best regards,

Paul.
