Bug#726775: libslepc3.4.2-dev: CMake script location

[Drew Parsons]

SLEPcConfig.cmake is no longer provided by SLEPc (3.7).

There is a internal script at 
/usr/lib/slepcdir/3.7.3/x86_64-linux-gnu-real/lib/slepc/conf/SLEPcBuildInternal.cmake

But it is used only for the internal build, it's not intended to be
used by client programs.

slepc4py uses the SLEPC_DIR mechanism to work out build flags.  dolfin
provides its own cmake/modules/FindSLEPc.cmake (again using SLEPC_DIR).
 

Upstream intends that pkgconfig be used instead. It's much simpler than
cmake.  SLEPc.pc is installed in /usr/lib/pkgconfig/ (the preferred
version is controlled by alternatives)

Actually I should probably make that 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/
so I'll leave this bug open until I sort that out.

The same applies to PETSc.
