Hi Leo, I haven't seen this problem before. What are you specifying to configure? You may want to send the configure.log (after killing it) to petsc-maint at mcs.anl.gov. I am not on that mailing list, but it's the right place to send potential bugs.
Also, this goes without saying, but if you were doing anything strange, it's best to start with a clean copy of the repository (I don't know the *right* way to do this in Mercurial, but you can just do an hg clone of your petsc-dev into another directory) A On Mon, Aug 23, 2010 at 2:45 PM, Leo van Kampenhout < lvankampenhout at gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Aron, > > I try now to configure the Mercurial version of Petsc-dev.
