[MMG_jll] General registry Compat.toml update

[ovanvincq]

The compat section of MMG_jll is limited to the version 6 of SCOTCH_jll.jl

Is it possible to update to the version 7 of SCOTCH_jll.jl ?

My initial problem is that it is not possible to simultaneously install latest versions of Gmsh.jl and MUMPS.jl:

• Gmsh.jl v0.3 requires gmsh_jll.jl that requires MMG_jll.jl that requires SCOTCH_jll.jl v6
• MUMPS.jl v1.4 requires MUMPS_jll.jl that requires SCOTCH_jll.jl v7

Thanks,

Hello, I have been facing the same problem while running Gmsh, SuperLUDIST and MUMPS in the same project. Did you find any workarounds to this issue?
Thank you in advance!

It is possible to install Gmsh and MUMPS by installing the packages in this order (test on windows and wsl):

add https://github.com/JuliaBinaryWrappers/MMG_jll.jl
add SCOTCH_jll.jl
add Gmsh
add MUMPS

This is possible because the version of SCOTCH_jll is not imposed in the original MMG_jl package (unlike those in the general registry)

Note that MUMPS 1.4.1 does not seems to work on windows and I installed version 1.4.0.
