[petsc-users] Error while calling a fieldsplit preconditioner containing a mg/gamg preconditioner

[Luc Berger-Vergiat]

Yes good call, I pulled master and got the patch.
I don't have errors anymore.

Do this mean that when a dm is active, the dm is assumed to create hold 
the information about the vectors (residual, solution and internal work 
vectors) for the problem, whereas when the dm is not active or is not 
used, the ksp is assumed to hold the information about vectors format?

Best,
Luc
