@Jed Brown do you agree in merging (in other words, to delete) the package ptscotch-openmpi into the scotch package?
Yes, agreed. I also think ptscotch-mpich should be renamed "scotch-mpich" for consistency (and tab completion) with "scotch" (which is an Open MPI build).
@George Eleftheriou I don't know how scotch works (and please, as maintainer, don't force us to understand the internal dependencies between packages) but I must repeat what I wrote you before: settle with the maintainers this merge and after that file a new merge request
1) Ask to jedbrown to let us know that he will not maintain anymore the ptscotch-openmpi package (or better adopt it yourself)
I've disowned it, but it can be deleted now that "scotch" provides it. Thanks, everyone.
