We currently only support the "--with-metis=PETSc" option to use the
Metis/ParMetis which was downloaded and installed during the PETSc
installation.



Configure & make logs for 1.2.1 attached.

I'd say you are missing a -lpython (and possibly other libraries) in your
libmesh_optional_LIBS, but this is just a guess based on Googling the first
undefined reference (PyType_IsSubtype).

The right way to link against Python might be by calling something like
"python-config --libs" on your system,  but since you are using
"pytrilinos" an even better approach might be to find a Trilinos Makefile
or configuration file that gives you the right list of libraries to link
against.
