Hi Will,
The error you got was from the PETSc installer, so you need to pass those
options to PETSc, not directly to firedrake-install.
export PETSC_CONFIGURE_OPTIONS="--download-fblaslapack=1"
python firedrake-install --no-package-manager --disable-ssh
Also note that you probably don't want --honour-pythonpath set. Unless you
have a very special reason why the firedrake virtualenv needs to see
external python packages, it is much safer to unset PYTHONPATH.
Regards,
David

Dear Firedrakers,
Running the install script
$ python firedrake-install --no-package-manager --disable-ssh
--honour-pythonpath
gave me the following error:
Could not find a functional BLAS. Run with --with-blas-lib=<lib> to
indicate the library containing BLAS.
Or --download-fblaslapack=1 to have one automatically downloaded and
installed
But the download option does not seem to be a recognised command for the
install script
$ python firedrake-install --no-package-manager --disable-ssh
--honour-pythonpath --download-fblaslapack=1
firedrake-install: error: unrecognized arguments: --download-fblaslapack=1
Thanks
Will
