[petsc-users] slepc NHEP error

[Jose E. Roman]

I still need to work on this, but in principle my previous comments are confirmed. In particular, in my tests it seems that the problem does not appear if PETSc has been configured with --download-fblaslapack
If you have a deadline, I would suggest you to go this way, until I can find a more definitive solution.
