Also for lapack-devel. Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 13.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 13.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Development AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: asmunder@stud.ntnu.no QAContact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:21.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/21.0 When blas-devel is installed or upgraded, it creates a symlink libblas.so -> libblas.so.3.4.2 (or similar). This does not play nice with update-alternatives, which expects libblas.so -> libblas.so.3 so that update-alternatives can change what libblas.so.3 points to. Please fix blas-devel to play nicely with other blas versions (e.g. openblas from the Science repo). The same is valid for lapack-devel. Please also fix lapack-devel. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install blas-devel 2. Install openblas-devel from the Science repo 3. Use update-alternatives --config libblas.so.3 to change which BLAS is used Actual Results: libblas.so still links to the version from blas-devel, no matter what I specify using update-alternatives. Expected Results: libblas.so should link to the version I specified with update-alternatives -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
