Hi all,
Can anyone recommend the best way to get a native LAPACK installed on Fedora core 4?
I'm quite surprised that I can't find an atlas rpm with yum.
While I'm at it, when I was using Gentoo, it came with a nice atlas blas/lapack. Unfortunately, the atlas lapack does not include all of lapack. It has everything Numeric/numarray needs, but not some stuff i need for another project (Banded Matrix solvers). Does anyone have a suggestion for how to add the addional lapack stuff I need, while still using atlas stuff where possible?
I can't comment on the Fedora question. With Gentoo, you should not use the "atlas" package, because it comes with an incomplete LAPACK, as you pointed out. Instead, Gentoo-ers should use the "blas-atlas" and "lapack-atlas" packages. -- Darren
