I see LAPACK 3.0 when I do "yum search", but the latest version is 3.4.2

Is there any place to get the newer RPMs for SL 5?

I've looked into building it but the instructions assume a knowledge
of using the package.  I'm just a lowly Sys Admin and want to build
this for some scientists I support.

thanks,

Alan,

I'm not familiar with LAPACK myself, but if you are unable to locate a repo with newer versions (suggest checking EPEL), one thing to try would be retrieving the srpm (source rpm) and modifying the spec file to use the newer source package and rebuilding. You might run into dependency issues that may or may not be trivial.

Best Regards,
Mark
