LoadError: LoadError: at row 0, column 0 : ArgumentError("number of rows in dims must be > 0, got 0")

I got the following error when building PETSc.jl:

================================[ ERROR: PETSc ]================================

LoadError: LoadError: at row 0, column 0 : ArgumentError("number of rows in dims must be > 0, got 0")
while loading /home/mohd/.julia/v0.6/PETSc/deps/build_petscs.jl, in expression starting on line 13
while loading /home/mohd/.julia/v0.6/PETSc/deps/build.jl, in expression starting on line 9

================================================================================

================================[ BUILD ERRORS ]================================

WARNING: PETSc had build errors.

 - packages with build errors remain installed in /home/mohd/.julia/v0.6
 - build the package(s) and all dependencies with `Pkg.build("PETSc")`
 - build a single package by running its `deps/build.jl` script

================================================================================

Any idea how to fix this?

Same issue here trying to use an Ubuntu system installation of PETSc. Working with Julia 0.6 and not sure whether this has been tested > 0.5.
