[dune-pdelab] Using Petsc with PDELab

[Christian Engwer]

Dear Samuel,

> I'm having a hard time trying to make Petsc-3.5.2 work with PDELab. Is there any tutorial showing how to install Petsc so it can be used with DUNE ?
> I've tried different version of Petsc but I always get these lines while installing PDELab :

I'm sorry, but the petsc support is currently broken. In the last time
we had some major changes in pdelab and not all backends are
up-to-date.

Still your problem is a different one. To help you in your struggle
with the build-system we need the full config.log to see how the test
failed. Looking into config.log might also give you already enough
hints to fix the issue.
