cmake/modules/ResolveCompilerPaths.cmake issue

[Thomas Hisch]

I get the following error while calling cmake in the master branch of dolfin:

-- Checking for package 'PETSc'
-- PETSC_DIR is /var/lib/jenkins/miniconda/envs/fenics16_petsc36/petsc

The installed version of cmake is 3.2.3 (I've also tried it with 3.0.2 - same problem)

I think the RESOLVE_DUPLICATES is being called with an empty list, caused by the FindPETSc.cmake not picking up any include flags on line 156. Possibly there is a problem with your PETSc installation? You can try editing the FindPETSc.cmake file to print more diagnostics with a message() command

I don't think that there is a problem with my PETSc installation. Compilation of dolfin 1.5 with petsc/slepc 3.5 worked fine with my setup scripts. I'll send the log output to fenics-support.

I checked out an old forked version of the dolfin repo, which did not contain the fixes for petsc/slepc 3.6. Sry about the noise.
