[Trilinos-Users] Partitioning Tpetra matrices

[Devine, Karen D]

Pavel:

The bug that you reported below in Zoltan2 is now fixed.  You can access
the code from the Trilinos public git repository; see
http://trilinos.org/?page_id=140 for details.

As Erik previously noted, use of Isorropia with Tpetra is deprecated.

Please let me know if you see further problems.
Karen
