Hi Chris,

thanks for trying sfepy!

Let's discuss this at sfepy-devel, or, if you do not want to register there, 
write me personally, this is IMHO rather off-topic for the scipy-user list.

Can you copy & paste the output and send it to me? I wonder what errors you get.

Yes, PETSc (with Petsc4py) are optional packages, used only by 
test_linear_solvers.py test file. It should not fail, however, only skip the test.

I will gladly help you, but I need more information - could you send me 
(off-list) the full outputs of the simulations that do not work, or produce 
error results? Also attach the solution files if you find it necessary.

Thanks,
