Hi Pierre, I'm preparing an update to mumps 5.1.  I'm following
upstream's new debian template, which builds both scotch and metis at
the same time.  This means libmumps-scotch-dev will have both scotch
and metis support (similarly in the parallel version).  Is this useful
to you or would we be better to generate a strictly new separate
package?
