Re: [Kaldi-users] Kaldi install fails in /src - openfst

Thanks for that. Here's what I have:

Opensuse uses Yast as a package manager and has libraries for both atlas 
and openblas. I did try installing atlas before, but I was thrown by the 
fact that no libatlas.so is provided. However there is a reason for my 
confusion. Opensuse packages provide both libsatlas and libtatlas so 
files. Evidently the 's' version is compiled for serial and the 't' 
version is for threaded. I think the latter is if you have a CUDA card 
installed.

I added a symlink in /usr/lib64 for libatlas.so pointing at 
atlas/libsatlas.so (conservatively, this can be changed) and this allows 
configure to finish. There are some warnings about it being the wrong 
architecture, but so far make is running.

I'm pretty sure I went through something similar to this in getting 
numpy and octave installed. All good practice, and plenty of hard drive 
space.

Thank you for your prompt assistance. If I can return the favour 
sometime let me know.
