The blas-atlas auto-config fails on Pentium-M processors. The issue is in the upstream code and a report has already been filed at: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1362614&group_id=23725&atid=379483 Following the ebuild instructions to configure manually using Pentium III as the architecture produces a successful compile. I'm submitting this to bugzilla because the error message is fairly cryptic and had me puzzled for a moment, so I decided to document the issue here. Please mark this bug closed as it's not really a gentoo issue. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Be running gentoo on a Pentium M laptop 2.emerge blas-atlas 3. Actual Results: Probing for architecture: make: *** [config] Error 255 * * ATLAS auto-config failed. * Please run 'interactive=1 emerge blas-atlas' to configure manually. * Expected Results: Configured properly for Pentium-M.
Closing this 'information' bug.
