I added CI tests with MUMPS v5.7.2 in #318 and all tests passed with Int32 and Int64. 👍
However I added CI tests with PASTIX v6.3.0 in this PR (only for Int32) and the tests failed. 👎

[nimgould]

OK, I'll have a look. I think my pastix is out of date, so I'll install the latest first

[nimgould]

The makefile double precision tests (both standalone via pastixt.F90 and as part of sls/sbls)
all work fine with pastix 6.3.2. However, the single precision ones don't get started; the spmGetArray function doesn't allocate the values array to the correct length. I will investigate further, but I have no idea why the meson double tests are failing

[amontoison]

I will upgrade the version installed with CI (6.3.0 -> 6.3.2) to check if the tests passed with this version.

[amontoison]

@nimgould I updated PaStiX to use the version 6.3.2 but single and double precision tests of PaStiX are still failing:

If I compile PASTIX without SCOTCH, the test pastixt in double precision works. 🤔

[nimgould]

Oh, I should say that I took the advice from the Pastix page to set scotch on and metis off. This works for me. I suppose that it might well be a metis version clash (again!)

[amontoison]

@nimgould
I have this compilation error, I don't understand how a .mod can be broken?!

I would like to test GALAHAD with PaStiX v6.4.0.
I was able to cross-compile this version, which means that all Julia users can use it in the next release of GALAHAD_jll.jl / GALAHAD.jl if we want.

I have no idea. As you say, a bug in a mod file is unusual, I have never seen one before. Certainly there is no issue here with the quad test using the dummy pastix (but then I don't know if the real one supports 128 bit reals)

[amontoison]

We need to support PASTIX 6.4.0 if we want to use / test it. The interface in GALAHAD is for an older version and they changed the API...

[nimgould]

Sigh ... do these people not understand how much it annoys their users if every minor version is different. This will be the third change in a year.

I'll have a look when I get a chance, do you know what changed?

[amontoison]

Nick, I have an issue when we deallocate the vectors in pastixt.
Do you have any idea why?
https://github.com/ralna/GALAHAD/blob/master/src/external/pastix/pastixt.F90#L234

[nimgould]

It is not obvious to me. I'll try using a STAT = status for each allocate/deallocate

[nimgould]

This works with the makefile build. I am not sure I understand the "conflicts" message above, the version I get from a pull on pastix_ci seems fine
