But if you are using the ScaLAPACK installer it will install the latest
ScaLAPACK library, hence you will have BLACS embedded in the ScaLAPACK
library. Or is there something I am missing?

Embedded libraries does not mean that BLACS routines are deprecated, but
rather that instead of 2 libraries (BLACS and ScaLAPACK) they are now 1
library (ScaLAPACK 2.x == ScaLAPACK 1.x + BLACS).

Hence when you link you just add the ScaLAPACK with "-lscalapack" or
however you wish to add the library.

Kind regards Nick
