If you can just update your scripts to only support petsc-dev, then no big deal. But if you have a project that wants to support several versions of PETSc, you would need to maintain multiple versions every time an API changes. BuildSystem does not have a stable API: try building today's petsc-dev using BuildSystem from last year or building last year's petsc using today's BuildSystem. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
