@fverdugo ... test/sequential/ElasticityDriver.jl fails with PETSc compiled in DEBUG mode on my machine

The error is:

I tried to normalize the rigid body motion vectors. This error above disappears, but we get a new one. Namely:

does it ring a bell? The rigid body motions seem to be well defined in the driver (3xrotations + 3xtranslations).

At present we are not able to reproduce this error in Github actions as we are using PETSc_jll which comes with PETSc compiled in release mode.
