Where/how did you obtain
/cygdrive/g/mypetsc/petsc-pkg-parmetis-45100eac9301.tar.gz ? Was it from PETSc
./configure?
self.version = '4.0.3'
self.versionname =
'PARMETIS_MAJOR_VERSION.PARMETIS_MINOR_VERSION.PARMETIS_SUBMINOR_VERSION'
self.gitcommit = 'v'+self.version+'-p9'
self.download =
['git://https://bitbucket.org/petsc/pkg-parmetis.git','https://bitbucket.org/petsc/pkg-parmetis/get/'+self.gitcommit+'.tar.gz']
