+ <h1>Interfacing <acronym>deal.II</acronym>
+ to <acronym>MUMPS</acronym></h1>
+
+ <p>
+ <a href="https://mumps-solver.org" target="_top">MUMPS</a>
+ should be readily packaged by most Linux distributions.
+ Don't forget to install a development version of the library.
+ In order for <acronym>deal.II</acronym> to use <acronym>MUMPS</acronym>,
+ you also need to have <acronym>BLAS</acronym>, <acronym>LAPACK</acronym>,
+ and <acronym>SCALAPACK</acronym> installed. Make sure that the libraries
+ used by <acronym>MUMPS</acronym> are the same as the ones used by
+ <acronym>deal.II</acronym>.
+ </p>
+
+
+ <h2>Linking with deal.II</h2>
+
+ <p>
+ Support for <acronym>MUMPS</acronym> will be enabled automatically
+ if a system wide installation of <acronym>MUMPS</acronym>
+ can be found. To use a self compiled version, specify
+ <pre>
+
+ -DMUMPS_DIR=/path/to/mumps
+ </pre> on the command line when invoking <code>cmake</code>.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ You can override the autodetection by manually specifying
+ <pre>
+
+ -DDEAL_II_WITH_MUMPS=OFF|ON
+ </pre>.
