Hi,
I want to be able to use an external BLAS library with some Fortran programs we are using. I am using a rhel5 system with two versions of gfortran available:
1) GNU Fortran (GCC) 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-52) - this does not have the "-fexternal-blas" option so am I right to think that with this version it is not possible to use an external blas library (provided by e.g. atlas)?
2) GNU Fortran (GCC) 4.4.4 20100726 (Red Hat 4.4.4-13) ("gfortran44") - this has the "-fexternal-blas" option but unfortunately I cannot find any RHEL5 package that provides an external BLAS library that can be used with this version (correct me if I'm wrong). I have tried installing netlib blas, atlas, goto2 from source to get something that will work with gfortran44 but have been unsuccessful.
Please can someone give me some guidance?
Thanks for your suggestions.
Matthew
