Hi Tim,

That is encouraging, thanks. I went back and tried harder this time, when I
specified BLA_VENDOR precisely and leave BLA_STATIC off, I am able to get
to the correct versions.
In the very same directory where the shared libraries are found, I have the
static libraries as well, but BLA_STATIC on in that case does not find the
libraries.

I've read up a bit on this now, so maybe the following information is
helpful:
This is a CMake 3.3.0 installation
My project has both C and Fortran enabled
I call it as follows:

set( BLA_STATIC ON)
set( BLA_VENDOR "Intel10_64lp_seq")
find_package( BLAS )

Is BLA_STATIC = ON working for you?

A separate question I have is if the linker command that will be produced
afterwards is of course different from the one supplied by Intel in their
tool. Should that not concern me?

kind regards,
Siebren
