Cannot build without mpiexec

Lisandro Dalcin has an excellent writeup here: https://gitlab.com/petsc/petsc/-/issues/1531

Would you be able to try the latest p4est master branch? Since the error message

configure:3709: error: --enable-mpi given but neither mpirun nor mpiexec found

should not appear anymore due to the changes in the libsc submodule in the PR cburstedde/libsc#117, which in particular addressed a similar issue. So, this may fix the reported configure issue.

Any comments regarding the develop branches of p4est and libsc? It seems that mpirun/mpiexec are not required anymore.

Any news on compatibility? About to release 2.8.6 very soon.

Yes, the fix works. We closed the issue: https://gitlab.com/petsc/petsc/-/issues/1531
