[Debichem-devel] Bug#1008726: apbs 3.4 requires FETK which does not support system SuperLU

Package: apbs
Version: 3.4.0-1
Severity: normal
Control: forwarded -1 https://github.com/Electrostatics/FETK/issues/62
Control: block 1006382 by -1

Not clear why apbs starting locking when finishing tests (Bug#1006382).
My workaround was to just upgrade to the latest apbs 3.4.

But apbs 3.4 now *requires* FETK.  This can be easily added in-source
(in the longer term it should probably be packaged separately).
The problem is that it is configured to pull a local copy of superlu.
Debian policy is to use system libraries where possible.

The problem has been raised already upstream at
https://github.com/Electrostatics/FETK/issues/62
