[petsc-dev] CHOLESKY with MUMPS doesn't work properly

Are you sure MUMPS is installed with petsc correctly?

Uses '-ksp_view' to check which solver is being used.
Seems it calls petsc cholesky with mpiaij matrix.

Petsc-dev supports mumps cholesky with mpiaij format, e.g.,
petsc-dev/src/ksp/ksp/examples/tutorials>mpiexec -n 2 ./ex2 -pc_type
cholesky -pc_factor_mat_solver_package mumps -mat_type mpiaij
Norm of error 1.53436e-15 iterations 1
