#237 Bundled library exception: lapack in OpenBLAS
Closed: Invalid None Opened 11 years ago by jussilehtola.

Hi,

related to the package review
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=739398

I'm asking for a bundled library exception for the LAPACK routines in OpenBLAS. The build process may use different compiler flags than those used in the lapack package, and linkage would happen in any case to a static library.


Rather than do that, why not simply tell me what specific compiler flags you'd need for an OpenBLAS specific lapack static lib, then I can make "liblapack-openblas.a" and have it in a subpackage for you to BuildRequires? :)

(spot, the lapack maintainer)

Well, at least I need the static library to be compiled with -fPIC, since it'll be linked as a shared library. (Why isn't this a problem in ATLAS?)

... and to answer my own question, it links against liblapack_pic.a (duh)... So no problems for now.

Well, after hours of work I got it to use the system version of LAPACK.
