Greetings! Just uploaded refblas3_1.2-9 to experimental. Hope to get lapack and atlas in in the next few days.
Is this a good time to address this: Now running lintian... W: refblas3gf: package-name-doesnt-match-sonames libblas3 Finished running lintian. I distinctly remember being required to come up with the naming scheme (refblas3 provides libblas.so.3 (virtual)) to get around difficulties with ldconfig and earlier incarnations of the packaging system (in conflict/replace with the earlier libblas) though I cannot recall the precise details at this point. It would make sense to call the package libblas3/libblas3-dev and have these also name virtual packages which atlas could provide. Will this work? Anyone have a better idea? Now would appear a good time to put in what we'll want to have for the next few years. Finally, it appears as though we might no longer need to mess with /etc/ld.so.conf to get the preferential loading -- that automatically certain subdirs of /usr/lib are searched by ld.so first. Any succinct update on the latest here would be most appreciated. What is the plan from experimental to unstable?
