Trilinos and scipy does not find umfpack from suitesparse

[Martin Sandve Alnæs]

As Johannes mentioned in answer to a recent question, adding
-DUMFPACK_INCLUDE_DIRS=/usr/include/suitesparse to trilinos.package
is a platform specific fix for letting trilinos know where umfpack is.
I believe dorsal previously detected this without problem, so I'd call this a bug.

But scipy doesn't find UMFPACK either:

swig -python -I/usr/include/suitesparse -I/usr/include/suitesparse -I/usr/include/suitesparse -o build/src.linux-x86_64-2.6/scipy/sparse/linalg/dsolve/umfpack/_umfpack_wrap.c -outdir build/src.linux-x86_64-2.6/scipy/sparse/linalg/dsolve/umfpack scipy/sparse/linalg/dsolve/umfpack/umfpack.i
scipy/sparse/linalg/dsolve/umfpack/umfpack.i:192: Error: Unable to find 'suitesparse/umfpack.h'

As a short term fix, how do I set the equivalent of -DUMFPACK_INCLUDE_DIRS=/usr/include/suitesparse for scipy.package?

I have fixed this now on the Debian based platforms and on Mac OS X. Can someone look at what's needed on the other platforms?

I've marked this as fixed for now. Let others report particular broken cases separately.
