+### Python pip install

+ASGarD has a pip installer called [ornl-asgard](https://pypi.org/project/ornl-asgard/) to avoid conflicts with existing project name.

+Both venv and user-space installs are supported, e.g.,

+python3 -m pip install onrl-asgard==0.7.0a2 --user
+```
+The `--user` tag is not needed for a venv install

+The installer is still experimental and the version will be changing often,

-### (deprecated) ScaLAPACK Integration
-
-The ASGARD\_USE\_SCALAPACK build option adds the "scalapack" solver option to ASGarD. In the implicit timestep method, this option
-distributes the matrix solve across multiple processes and nodes and enables larger problems that are too large for a single computer.
-
-This build option is only available when ASGARD\_USE\_MPI=ON. Unfortunately, setting ASGARD\_USE\_SCALAPACK alone is not sufficient
-and doesn't change the ASGARD\_USE\_MPI setting.
