The IT++ library, which I develop by the way, depends on a set of externa= l libraries, i.e. BLAS, LAPACK and CBLAS. By the time of preparing the ebuild for this library I was wondering if there is a possibility to add "virtual/cblas" to Gentoo, similarly to "virtual/blas" and "virtual/lapack". The reason for this new virtual is that CBLAS interface to BLAS is not always provided by a particular BLAS implementation. I found working CBLAS interface in the following packages in Gentoo: - blas-atlas (libcblas.* set by eselect) - gsl (libgslcblas.*) - mkl But unfortunately it is not provided by: - blas-reference - acml Besides, I prepared a new ebuild with NetLib's CBLAS (http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D122958 ), which will extend the= former list. I think that it would be perfect if "virtual/cblas" could be added for these packages that provides CBLAS interface. What is your opinion? Best regards, /Adam Pi=C4=85tyszek PS. I discussed this issue with Markus Dittrich (markusle), who suggested= to post the email to the gentoo-science mailing list. --=20 -=3D#=3D- Adam Pi=C4=85tyszek - "ediap" -=3D#=3D- Linux ID: #204648 = -=3D#=3D- -=3D#=3D- ediap (at) et.put.poznan.pl -=3D#=3D- JID: ediap (at) chrome.= pl -=3D#=3D- -=3D#=3D- http://ediap.prv.pl/ -=3D#=3D- GG: 1157376 = -=3D#=3D- -=3D#=3D- PGP key ID: 0x341E22F0 -=3D#=3D- ICQ: 3303291 = -=3D#=3D- --------------enig6F082F3BBA723000F25C6559 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFD9cQ22LdbWzQeIvARAqwIAJ9CvLcFB9dd6xgeE7Atw227o6rYUwCgy6TL lkSMExddZgtHAyq1+1PcIiY= =d6k2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enig6F082F3BBA723000F25C6559-- -- gentoo-science@gentoo.org mailing list
