Thanks!

+ ("openmpi" ,openmpi)))
GCC is made available via the cmake-build-system, so I think we could
leave it out of native-inputs. Or am I missing something?

We can avoid hard-coding the version string here, like this:

I saw in 'metis/Changelog' that a relicensing to Apache 2 was done for

4.0.3.
If the copyright owners intend to release this as free software, they
need to change the 'LICENSE.txt' file.

Thanks for the review (of this and of scotch-shared)
Yes, you’re right, gcc native-inputs can be removed and yes, it’s probably better to avoid hard-coding version string
A new patch is attached that works for me.
Regarding the license, I missed this. Is it possible to directly attached the LICENSE.txt in the guix recipe ? If so, what’s the proper syntax ?
Thanks

Guix proper only includes free software:
So I’m afraid we cannot get Parmetis in Guix until it’s free (it would
be interesting to discuss this with the authors). :-/
Thanks,
