 that's ok. Please remove those comments. I will keep patching ubuntu.cfg
 locally.

 > ubuntu.cfg should work, shouldn't it? The list of recommended packages
 isn't used anywhere. It's really only a comment. Is the problem that a
 standard Ubuntu boost installation isn't found by the thorn, if not
 configured in the option list (I don't know if this is the case, you tell
 me)?

 It will build Boost and HDF5 libraries with the current ubuntu.cfg because
 it can't find them in the system directories. Those comments are to help
 new users on which packages to have installed in the system so that ET
 compilation goes faster. I suggested also to add openmpi to the list of
 packages installed in the comment because I had problems with mpich2 a few
 months ago. Both might work though. I guess Roland is trying a test with
 mpich2, right?
