Bug 200337 – Stabilization of sci-libs/lapack-atlas-3.8.0

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Sébastien Fabbro (RETIRED) 2007-11-25 22:49:46 UTC]

Hi all,

lapack-atlas is stable upstream, and our version has been bug free for more than
a month. To test it, the src_test is one step, and testing any other package
depending on virtual/lapack after a "eselect lapack set atlas".

Thanks

Doesn't compile on alpha. Wasn't blas-atlas supposed to be dropped in favor of blas-reference or something?

We didn't plan on dropping it but rather have the *-reference versions be the "default"
in the respective virtuals since the *-atlas builds are notoriously difficult to compile.

That said, the ouput you posted comes from blas-atlas not lapack-atlas so it 
should probably be at bug #200336?
In any case, it looks like on your alpha the build already craps out at the
CPU detection step since it fails to compile the require assembly code.
I'll probably have to post this upstream. Could you please post your
emerge info and type ot box your using so I can let upstream know
about this as well?! Thanks much.

Best,
Markus

Lol, i knew i had posted that build log somewhere. Sorry. lapack-atlas needs blas-atlas, so i'll move the problems there :)

Compiles fine for me. I tested this in conjunction with sci-libs/blas-atlas, using various linear algebra functions in dev-python/numpy (with the lapack USE flag, of course, and using LAPACK functions). Not sure how comprehensive this is, but I tested some code for my thesis, which does a pretty wide cross-section of LA stuff, as well as various examples from http://www.scipy.org/Numpy_Example_List.

For what it's worth, I've been successfully using *-atlas-3.8.0 libraries for some time on amd64 and x86 as well, for the aforementioned thesis code and various other purposes.
