+This package is mantained for building Xyce at 32 and 64 bit

+required packages for building Xyce are not compiling at 32-bit
+architectures, this is Kokkos. This SlackBuild includes a workaround
+for compiling Trilinos at 32-bit architectures, disabling some packages
+that depends on Kokkos, i.e. Amesos2 and Stokhos. These packages
+enable optional features in Xyce. However, according to the Xyce
+building instructions the ShyLU package is a requirement for
+Parallel Xyce but also depends on Kokkos.
+* The workaround solution may not allow total funtionality of

Optional dependences:
For enable parallelism set PARALLEL=yes. This requires the
