[petsc-users] installing petsc with scalapack from mkl

[Inge Gutheil]

The configure finally worked when I added
'--with-scalapack-include=/usr/local/intel/Composer/composer_xe_2011_sp1.10.319/mkl/include',
There is an mkl_scalapck.h
in that directory.
It did not work with MKLPATH and with empty path I got a python error, 
perhaps I added a blank where I should not have done, I don't know how 
to use python correctly.
Unfortunately I can't find out whether it compiles and runs because the 
compiler is in maintenance on the test-cluster where I have to try the 
installations.
Thanks
Inge Gutheil
