Comment (by catap):

 Replying to [comment:6 FreddieWitherden]:
 > Is there any reason not to make the dylib you proposed the default
 `libscotch.dylib`?  This would be consistent with what several Linux
 distributions do (including Ubuntu) and restore cross-platform
 compatibility (since all one would need to do for macOS is append `.dylib`
 rather than `.so` which is what has worked historically).

 For some reason, upstream authors decided to use dynamic linking for
 users: https://gitlab.inria.fr/scotch/scotch/-/issues/26

 I've opened an upstream issue about this case:
 https://gitlab.inria.fr/scotch/scotch/-/issues/27

 For the time being, I suggest using a wrapper that covers an issue.
