Typically we don't do reviews here, but this is a special case...
There are two things worth noting. I needed to create a variation of both petsc and slepc (petsc-complex, slepc-complex) to be able to do have one install for real and one for complex scalars.
FreeFEM (in the way the user needs it) has to have support for both and I found no other way to make this work.
Most of the other recipes (e.g. mumps) should have only minor updates for newer versions.
The FreeFEM recipe is basically "new." Comments and improvements are welcome.
Do you see any other way of doing this?
I'll wait until we finalize this discussion before submitting a PR on the stack side
