[petsc-users] Error while building PETSc with MATLAB

Here is the matlab test that runs in CI 

https://gitlab.com/petsc/petsc/-/jobs/4904566768

config/examples/arch-ci-linux-matlab-ilp64.py

# Note: regular BLAS [with 32-bit integers] conflict with
# MATLAB BLAS - hence requiring -known-64-bit-blas-indices=1

Ah - so you need to use the ilp64 blas/lapack with matlab  - to have a compatible build

    '--with-blaslapack-dir='+matlab_dir,
