Public bug reported:

With the new packaging of IPOPT for Ubuntu 12.04, the default pkgconfig
file for IPOPT has changed to referencing the parallel build of MUMPS

Firstly, the coinor-libipopt-dev package should DEPEND on libmumps-dev
since the dmumps library is not available unless that package is
installed.

Secondly, preferably coinor-libipopt-dev should depend on libmumps-seq-
dev instead, since previous IPOPT packages have used the serial build of
MUMPS and this change breaks compatibility.

In fact there appears to be no way to make use of the serial version of
mumps with IPOPT without manually editing the IPOPT pkgconfig file
(/usr/include/pkgconfig/ipopt.pc) to replace '-ldmumps' with
'-ldmumps_seq'. Shouldn't we have some way to flag serial/parallel MUMPS
via the pkg-config mechanism?
