dolfin installation problem
Issue #324
invalid
Hi,
Today I tried to install dolfin 1.4 in Fedora 20. I've worked with dolfin 1.3 until now.
Using the following commands
cd <fenics directory>
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/fenics-1.4.0 ..
I've got errors in
-- The following optional packages were found:
-- -------------------------------------------

-- (OK) MPI

I read and read this files from cmake but I could not find what was wrong since I installed fenics 1.3 using the same linux commands with the same system libraries.
So I decided to manually turn off the optional packages cmake could not find (since I did not installed them).
After that, everything was fine.
So I think your could put a note in cmake files or in a readme file saying that we must turn off packages we did not have, or cmake will display errors.
Well hope this note helps someone with similar difficulties ... and congratulations for this amazing project.
Regards, Marcelo
