[Dune] [SPOOFED?] Re: DUNE unable to find ParMETIS installation on macOS

[Lukas Riedel]

Hi Christoph,

I solved the problem based on your hint, but moving only the header turned out to be insufficient.
Both libraries have to be installed into the same location, which is quite unintuitive and should be made clear in the build system documentation or wherever it is appropriate. Since ParMETIS has not been updated since 2013 I doubt this will ever be resolved on their end, and I think the DUNE build system should account for that.

I wrote up the full resolution in a comment to my original Issue <https://gitlab.dune-project.org/core/dune-istl/issues/77#note_57903>.

Thank you for your help!
Lukas
