Description Dennis Schridde 2015-11-14 17:53:46 UTC
I do have virtual/blas installed:
```
$ eix -e virtual/blas
[I] virtual/blas
     Available versions:  [m]1.0 (~)2.1-r1[1] (~)2.1-r2[1] (~)2.1-r3[1] {doc int64}
     Installed versions:  2.1-r3[1](14:46:37 31/10/15)(-doc -int64)
     Description:         Virtual for FORTRAN 77 BLAS implementation

[1] "science" /var/lib/layman/science
```

But there is no implementation available:
```
$ eselect blas list
Available providers for blas:
  (none found)
```

My suspicion is that this is caused by dev-cpp/eigen providing it:
```
$ eix -e dev-cpp/eigen
[I] dev-cpp/eigen
     Available versions:  
     (2)    2.0.17^t
     (3)    3.1.3 (~)3.2.2[1] (~)3.2.4[1] (~)3.2.5 (~)3.2.6 **9999[1]
       {adolc debug doc examples fftw fortran gmp metis mkl pastix sparse static-libs test}
     Installed versions:  2.0.17(2)^t(12:18:03 23/06/15)(-debug -doc -examples) 3.2.6(3)(14:42:37 31/10/15)(-debug -doc)
     Homepage:            http://eigen.tuxfamily.org/
     Description:         C++ template library for linear algebra

[1] "science" /var/lib/layman/science
```

/var/lib/layman/science/virtual/blas/blas-2.1-r3.ebuild: RDEPEND="|| ( ... >=dev-cpp/eigen-3.1.4 ... )"

I know that Eigen 3 comes with a BLAS and partial LAPACK implementation, but something seems to be missing in Gentoo, preventing it from being detected as a proper alternative...

Sidenote: The version of Eigen provided in the Science overlay is pretty outdated.

Reproducible: Always

Comment 1 Justin Lecher (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2015-11-20 09:26:48 UTC
The in tree version doesn't support blas through eselect. Someone needs to bump it in the sci overlay.

The version can be bumped by copying and making the changes outlined below the diff below.

I also had a look at the changes of the dev-cpp/eigen ebuild in the Gentoo tree:

The "/Unknown build type/d" sed does not seem to be necessary (it builds here without), but someone more familiar with Eigen should have a look at this.

The 3 lines related to FindEigen3.cmake need to be added.
