Thanks for your feedback!

In v1 of this patch I removed the 'petscvariables'-file completely but this 
broke dependent packages as well as not-yet packaged projects which use the 
file for finding the PETSc library and configuriung their build system.

Is there a possibility to replace the hard-coded /gnu/store with a variable 
which evaluates to the current store directory?

Sincerely,
Lars
