[Pkg-scicomp-devel] Bug#529970: libpetsc3.0.0-dev: Request to include fortran interfaces

[Stephan Kramer]

Package: libpetsc3.0.0-dev
Version: 3.0.0.dfsg-4
Severity: wishlist

One of the great things of PETSc 3 is that it include explicit fortran
interfaces for most routine. By default however only the routines that
use f90 extenstions, like VecGetArrayF90, IsGetIndicesF90, etc., are
included. To include fortran interfaces for most other routines, PETSc
has to be configured with --with-fortran-interfaces=1.
Including those would be of great help for a sloppy programmer like me!
