Matt,

Is it possible to specify package dependencies such that the following happens:

[all mpipackages like -lhypre] [-lmpe] -lmpi

Currently I have: mpe: depends on mpi hypre: depends on mpi

And configure can do: -lmpe -lhypre -lmpi

But I want to say: mpe: depends on mpi, but before all other mpi packages.

From a library dependency POV, it is the other way around: MPI depends on MPE, but the dependency is optional.
