Comment 13 for bug 586741

no, that still doesn't make it for me.
I have now set up one stable and one unstable build of dolfin on my laptop.
The stable build is fine. For the unstable build I've tried both Harish's first patch that made it for in earlier attempts and Johanne's latest patch that he pushed to dolfin.

Here's the end of my build output (I tried the log file but it didn't say much (two lines only))
