Hi,
we would like to request a transition of the numerical stack libraries, namely:
- PETSc and petsc4py, from 3.24 to 3.25
- SLEPc and slepc4py, from 3.24 to 3.25
- mumps, from 5.8 to 5.9
- adios2, from 2.11 to 2.12

https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/auto-petsc.html
https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/auto-slepc.html
https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/auto-mumps.html
https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/auto-adios2.html

The transitions are in principle independent but, since they affect the same downstream packages and upstream source have released new versions roughly at the same time, we would like to proceed with a single transition for the whole stack.

The most relevant downstream packages have been locally tested for compatibility.
dolfinx, dolfinx-mpc and vtk9 built+tested correctly without any changes.
dolfin, sundials and deal.ii have received a new upload upload in unstable for compatibility with PETSc 3.25.

Cheers,
Francesco
