Greetings,
I've made a little error, the package involved is not ParMETIS but METIS,
and its derivated work made by EDF, METIS-EDF.
So, the question is:
Do you approve of the posting of METIS source and binary packages on the
800+ Debian mirror servers around the world, as a means of delivery to our
users?
Sorry for asking you twice, and thank you for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
Andrea Palazzi
