~/software/fenics/dolfin/dev/source/dolfin/nls/PETScSNESSolver.cpp: In member function ‘void dolfin::PETScSNESSolver::set_bounds(dolfin::GenericVector&)’:
/home/nschloe/software/fenics/dolfin/dev/source/dolfin/nls/PETScSNESSolver.cpp:610:20: error: ‘PETSC_INFINITY’ was not declared in this scope
         VecSet(ub, PETSC_INFINITY);

This is with the dreaded PETSc 3.2.

[Prof Garth Wells]

You'll need to fix this yourself. The buildbots with PETSc 3.2 do not trigger this and I don't have PETSc 3.2

[Nico Schlömer]

Caught it: It was actually an outdated PETSc-development version floating around in /usr/local/ which triggered #if PETSC_VERSION_RELEASE to be false.
