Hello,

Thanks for the help. Yes, it works inside the virtualenv.

On another note, I noticed that some of the demos say that you need to have mumps and hypre installed with petsc. Is there a way of configuring this using the firedrake-install command?

Yes, you can pass extra values to the PETSc configure process by setting the environment variable "PETSC_CONFIGURE_OPTIONS" before running firedrake-install. We should document this better on the download page! I think firedrake-install --help mentions it, but it's not super-clear. Note that if you do this, you will also have to supply the same options later (via the environment variable) during firedrake-update. Thanks, Lawrence
