After taking a quick look at the ParMETIS Changelog file, I would guess that version 4.0.3 should work fine. > Second: Not clear to me where to put parmetis-4.0.x.tar.gz when downloaded. You should not need to download this manually, however if you do, you should put it in DOWNLOAD_PATH (defined in dorsal.cfg).
