cannot convert '_p_Vec* const' to '_p_VecScatter*' for argument '1' to 'PetscErrorCode

[Anirban Chatterjee]

Hi Satish,

Yes, that fixes it. I can install OOQP with petsc-2.3.0 without a problem.

But after fixing the VecScatter problem if I try petsc-3.0 then I end up 
in a linker error in src/QpBound/QpBoundPetsc.o
"undefined reference to PetscIterativeSolver::PetscIterativeSolver". I 
cannot understand this. I have to check this.
