Hi,
in framework intelmkl.py it says: BLAS_LIB_STATIC = True
(hardcoded, not an option)
I'm not sure why this is only done for Intel MKL, and not for other
BLAS/LAPACK libraries.
This was done as a part of a *big* refactor years ago (when we still
used the term 'toolkit' rather than 'toolchain'), see
https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-framework/pull/281 .
We can certainly enhance this so you get the choice, e.g. via a
toolchain option named 'blas_link_static'?

Kenneth
I did some "git blame"ing to find out the reason and found this commit
introduced it:

blas added, need better Variables class (refs #176)

this does not really answer my question. Does anybody on the list
know. Note: all other linalg libraries (gotoblas, acml, openblas,
atlas, libsci, flame, ...) are linked dynamically; MKL is the exception.
