First, good job updating and completing PKGBUILD. I've got several questions/points: * You detect if some optional libraries are on the system using: 'if pacman -Qs PKG >/dev/null'. This will ignore them if you manually install any of these libraries since you rely on 'pacman' database. I'm not saying that this is plain wrong but certainly presents some limitations. You are forced to install those packages from AUR to work. I'll definitely install those packages using AUR way, just want it to point it out. * Some comments are really useful but others seems to be just information that should not be on a PKGBUILD and in general very extense. For example, you describe how makepkg.conf and its options works and show examples of how to set a flag in CMake. I this this clutters the PKGBUILD and simply it is not the place to put it on. You can create a new page on the Wiki for deal.II or invite to find more documentation on the deal.II website. That is just my two cents. Great work with this library and this package.

Hello everyone, After some discussion with @coincoin I am now listed as a comaintainer. For those of you who do not know me: I am one of the developers of deal.II and I also use Arch Linux. I uploaded a new PKGBUILD for version 8.5: we should now correctly capture all optional dependencies. Let me know what you think, and post if something does not work: I am familiar enough with the build system of deal.II that I should be able to fix any hiccups. Thanks, David Wells

@coincoin Thanks, setting MPI flag (-DWITH_MPI=ON) worked! I tested this with the example 'step-18' that uses PETSC/MPI and it runs OK. Nevertheless, only using PETSC flag (-DWITH_PETSC=ON) did not worked. You got to add the flags I mentioned before: -DPETSC_DIR="/opt/petsc/linux-c-opt/" -DPETSC_PETSCVARIABLES="/opt/petsc/linux-c-opt/lib/petsc/conf" These variables can be safely added since it does not break the installation even if PETSC package is not present. I totally understand that you cannot change to -DWITH_XX=ON flags in the PKGBUILD. Thanks for the support. ;)

Have you tried using the flags -DWITH_MPI=ON and -DWITH_PETSC=ON as mentionned in the doc : http://www.dealii.org/8.4.1/index.html ? You might also see subsection 3.3 External library locations http://www.dealii.org/8.4.1/users/cmake.html#configureext I have not tried with PETSC yet. Something might prevent deal-ii from finding the packages and unfortunately I cannot change the PKGBUILD for your needs (it should be done within deal-ii build system).

Compilation with OpenMPI and PETSC is not working even if the packages are installed. I've managed to make deal-II detect PETSC with these flags: -DPETSC_DIR="/opt/petsc/linux-c-opt/" -DPETSC_PETSCVARIABLES="/opt/petsc/linux-c-opt/lib/petsc/conf" However, it does not activate this functionality since MPI is not properly detected.

@asartori86 Indeed, I will also remove Lapack which is optional. Every packages are actually optional. Thanks I ll change that.

I, why did you set that boost and openmpi are required dep? In fact, deal-ii is shipped with bundled boost and it can run fine also without mpi.
