Dear  Jean-Paul,

Thanks very much for your explanations. It helped me a lot to better 
understanding of Spack environment and its functionality. You were also 
right, my Spack version is a bit old.
Anyway, after some further manipulations I was a able to configure Trilions.

However thereafter, and when it comes to deal.ii installation I receive the 
following error message:
Error: ProcessError: Command exited with status 2:
    'make' '-j8'

Since the machine on which I am trying to install deal.ii is old and I have 
already been facing memory limitations, I thought it might be a again 
memory related issue. Thereby I reduced the number of jobs to 4 but it did 
not help this time and conditions exist with the same message.
So I was wondering if there might still be any way around?

Thank you very much,
Behrooz
