Package: libblis2 Version: 0.5.1-1 Severity: important The combinatorial builds are good (and I hope they're repeated for openblas), but they need to be installable in parallel, and the default should be serial because anything else is unsafe. The Fedora openblas and blis packages allow that.
Considering some Debian packages: cp2k wants the serial version (see cp2k.org), numpy apparently needs pthreads (see the openblas changelog), and I might want OpenMP for linear algebra-heavy R (absent some higher-level parallelization, like pbdR). In some cases, like cp2k, you might want to be able to enforce a version via the soname or rpath. In others, like different usages of R, you might want to switch with LD_LIBRARY_PATH or LD_PRELOAD in different circumstances. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.6 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'stable'), (50, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-8-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_GB:en (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages libblis2 depends on: ii libblis2-openmp 0.5.1-1 libblis2 recommends no packages. libblis2 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
