Comment(by drkirkby):
Replying to [comment:3 mpatel]:
> In particular, `liblapack.so` and `libf77blas.so` aren't made. Is this
relevant here? Running `ln -s libgfortran.so.2 libgfortran.so` in
`SAGE_LOCAL/lib` and reinstalling ATLAS appears to help (cf.
[comment:ticket:9356:5 comment 5] and [comment:ticket:9356:7 comment 7] at
#9356).
I think it proves we don't need the shared libraries myself. Note they are
not built on OS X at all - see the badly name file
{{{make_correct_shared.sh}}}
But more to the point, it's unwise to test for them before permitting the
code associated with {{{SAGE_ATLAS_LIB}}} to work. At the minute, that
code tests for the 4 shared libraries on Linux, and 3 on Solaris. That
seems to be rather flawed given only two are reliably built on Linux. Sure
we might be able to get them to build, but that's far from obvious how to
do that best. Just ignoring them seems simpler to me.
