Yes, you can ./configure with --disable-parser. I haven't tried this in a long time but would still hope that it works. The fparser library is distributed under two different licenses, only one of which is the GPL. The other one is more lenient but only pertains to non-commercial use. I don't know if that's a license that Debian would accept. > Second, Debian unstable has PETSc 3.0 now, but the deal.II build with it > is running into trouble: As Toby mentioned, this has been fixed in the latest dev. We think we'll probably have a new release in the next 2-3 weeks, so if you aren't in a hurry it may be worth waiting with uploading to Debian until there's a 6.2 release.
