What is libslepc64-real-dev

libslepc64-real-dev is:

SLEPc is a software library for the solution of large scale sparse eigenvalue problems on parallel computers. It is an extension of PETSc and can be used for either standard or generalized eigenproblems, with real or complex arithmetic. It can also be used for computing a partial SVD of a large, sparse, rectangular matrix.

This is a dummy package which depends on the latest version of SLEPc with real number support and 64-bit indexing.
