Source: openblas Version: 0.3.9+ds-1 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
Please consider including the 'openblas_get_config' extension function in the libblas.so.3 shared library provided by all OpenBLAS flavors. In previous versions of the libopenblas-base library package, it was possible to have a program dynamically load libblas.so.3, then use dlsym to look for the symbol 'openblas_get_config' to determine if OpenBLAS was being used and display the version and configuration. As an example, Octave uses this to determine if the BLAS library in use is OpenBLAS or MKL or ATLAS or something else. This is no longer possible. I also plan on adding a fallback to Octave to look for other OpenBLAS symbols, so it can at least report that it's *some* OpenBLAS. Thanks for all the great work maintaining OpenBLAS. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (900, 'testing'), (800, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.6.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled -- debian-science-maintainers mailing list [email protected] https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/debian-science-maintainers
