Subject: Upgrade for SLEPc interface in libMesh

Dear Benjamin,

I am the lead developer of SLEPc. As you may know, we have recently
released SLEPc 3.0.0, which has some incompatibilities with previous
versions.

We have done some changes in order to enable libMesh to use SLEPc
3.0.0. You have done a good job integrating SLEPc in libMesh, so it
was very easy. I am attaching the changes as diff's with respect to
your current svn repository.

Just a few comments:
- We have set Krylov-Schur as the default eigensolver. This is far
better than the older Arnoldi.
- We have removed the code that set the orthogonalization to MGS,
because the default (iterative CGS) is much better.
- We have added a dummy function solve_adjoint() in order to be able
to compile.

Please forward this message to the rest of libMesh developers. Let us
know if further interaction is required regarding this.

Best regards,
Jose E. Roman
