Found it. Seems to be a problem with the symlinks in
petscwithmumps.package.

Can we remove those symlinks? Will there ever be anything installed in

  ${INSTALL_PATH}/lib/${PETSC_ARCH}

?

Dorsal is installing PETSc as a library ($prefix/include, lib etc)
without any reference to PETSC_ARCH so those symlinks should not be
needed.
