Well ... I can update SuiteSparse, but the update is not compatible with Octave (@3.8.1). A quick search does not turn up patches to fix this. I'll ping the Octave devs to see if they know about this issue. I'd prefer to not update SuiteSparse until other projects use the new APIs.

I've attached the "svn diff" for anybody wanting to do this update. I don't know if it works with the other ports that use SuiteSparse; knowing it does not work with Octave is enough for me to hold off ...

Thanks for that info. I was afraid of that! That's a good enough reason to stay at the old version.

I can try to test this out for PETSc and dolfin but if the API changed, then I don't have much hope.

@sean: yes, please, if you could test those that would be great.

The Octave devs have a patch for the new SuiteSparse API: http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/afd6179d2616 . I've attached it as a -p0 patch to this ticket. It fixes the immediate SuiteSparse issue, but I get errors due to "#include <math.h>" not chaining through properly.

I've finally had a chance to look at this and none of the downstream ports have released versions to fix this. Dolfin just fixed this last month. PETSc still needs to update, though. I would prefer to hold back updating SuiteSparse until octave, dolfin, and petsc are compatible.
