Now that you mention it, I am also puzzled by this one: I can see why 
you would use atlas3-sse2-dev without atlas3-base-dev (for the static 
library), but not having atlas3-base-dev makes it imposible to 
dynamically link to atlas libraries without customizing makefiles and/or 
configure options. I will report this as a bug, see what the maintainers 
say.
