No, all the third party libs used to be put into the PETSc shared libs (but not the static libs). The easiest way to do this is with -Wl,--whole-archive though I haven't looked at the build system to see if this is how it is actually being done. All the others still behave this way, but ML is no longer included. So if you are using shared libs, you only need to link libpetsc*.so. This is recommended practice with shared libs, you only explicitly link the interface libraries (those that your code actually calls into) and let the linker handle the dependencies. Of course when using static libs, you need to explicitly link all the dependencies. Jed -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
