[Dune] Installation of Alberta 3.0 and its usage in DUNE

[Christoph Grüninger]

Hi Andrea,
I am not aware of any special things that are not mentioned on
http://www.dune-project.org/external_libraries/install_alberta.html

Would you mind to send the config.log? A couple of times Alberta could 
not be linked on configure and was then not available for Dune. I never 
figured out why this usually work and sometimes fail.

Bye
Christoph

TeX ist ineffizient
Weil es Mathematische Ausdrücke so dermaßen schön setzt, dass ich
mich regelmäßig dabei erwische, wie ich meine eigenen Gleichungen
angucke, obwohl ich sie bereits in- und auswendig kenne.
