[Lapackpp-devel] Error configuring with externally compiled Blas & Lapack

[Sonia S. <son...@gm...>]

Hi,

I am trying to compile lapackpp-2.5.0 on Suse Linux.
I am using Intel's MKL library containing Blas and Lapack libraries.
When I run configure giving the path to these libraries, it gives the
error of not finding functions in the blas/lapack libraries.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*** This means Lapack++ and matrix support cannot be compiled.
*** This makes this library unusable. Please get blas and lapack
*** installed. If you do have these installed, use the options
*** --with-blas=<libname> or --with-lapack=<libname> and/or set
*** the env variable LDFLAGS to include the appropriate linker
*** flags.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
But when I nm the libraries that I am linking to, I can find the
functions that configure was looking for.

What could be the problem here ?
