When I enter:

wget http://slepc.upv.es/download/download.php?filename=slepc-3.5.4.tar.gz -O slepc-3.5.4.tar.gz

it returns:

Will not apply HSTS. The HSTS database must be a regular and non-world-writable file.
ERROR: could not open HSTS store at '/home/dirtbag/.wget-hsts'. HSTS will be disabled.

When I download slepc-3.5.4.tar.gz from the website or git clone it and try to: ./configure

it returns:
Checking LAPACK library...
ERROR: cannot generate Fortran stubs; try configuring PETSc with --download-sowing or use a mercurial version of PETSc

(I followed the instructions for getting PETSC)

huh that link must be dead now. i haven't been actively developing this software, but would accept PRs if you can find where they have moved the slepc libraries.

thanks

I found it at
Also I got the two to work after starting over and re-configuring PETSC by adding "--download-sowing"

I guess I will give up, because when I tried to "make all" im_clam I got a fatal error.

That is unfortunate, I was looking for to trying im_clam. Is there an alternative software you would recommend?

[andrewkern]

what error did you get? it should compile if you were able to download slepc
