Comment (by jpflori):
About ATLAS, I'm mostly asking that because the policy of Sage seems to
be: require the fewest system packages as possible.
So if ATLAS can be built without much hassle let's build it by default,
just as we only require gcc and build g++ and gfortran by default and try
to build patch.
The user can always decide to install the g++ and gfortran and to set
SAGE_ATLAS_LIB.
Personally I never install the ATLAS spkg, but use the system one, because
it always took ages to build when it did not fail, and could never
correctly detect my cpus to choose a sensible default.
I would be very happy to use my system patch as well (but I guess that
some creepy system do not even provide a working patch so the spkg is
needed).
