I'll fix it in the next day or two. -Adam -- GPG fingerprint: D54D 1AEE B11C CE9B A02B C5DD 526F 01E8 564E E4B6 Engineering consulting with open source tools http://www.opennovation.com/ signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

There's a big transition about to happen with hdf5, petsc, slepc, hypre, mumps, gmsh, and removing illuminator from testing, all in the works since early December. This should all go in early next week, I'd hate to hold up further uploads of all of the other packages for yet another week. I do mind. This bug's serious, please don't change its severity. We can always override it for testing migration if we need to. Cheers, Julien signature.asc Description: Digital signature

I'll set up the conflict accordingly. One thing though: do you mind if we downgrade the severity temporarily?
