Satish,

I must be an idiot. I tried using your potential fix,

But I cannot find the branch?

I looked in fired rack and PETSc GitHub but searching I was unable to locate the repo.

I tried:

...

I used the following:

/hrtc/apps/scripting/anaconda3/x86_64/2020.02/bin/python3 ./firedrake-install --no-package-manager --venv-name build --tinyasm --disable-ssh --minimal-petsc --slepc --documentation-dependencies --install thetis --install gusto --install icepack --install irksome --install femlium --package-branch petsc balay/fix-executables-search-path --package-branch slepc balay/fix-executables-search-path

What am I doing wrong?

Best Regards,

John

P.S. Thank you for all you assistance.

I pushed a potential fix [off release] in branch balay/fix-executables-search-path - can you try it?

[if you need this fix on main branch - you can merge it over locally - and test]

Hm - did this option ever work? [I don't remember seeing this in a very long time

I suspect its expecting a list - in python notation [and not in PATH notation]. So probably needs fixing. But do you need this option?
