OpenBLAS provides its own LAPACK, which has some optimizations and is probably more recent than RHEl's -- I haven't checked.

The linear algebra situation in RHEl/Fedora is unfortunate, but you can hack around linkage with inefficient BLAS/LAPACK <https://loveshack.fedorapeople.org/blas-subversion.html>. _______________________________________________ epel-devel mailing list -- epel-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to epel-devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
