I’m merging this bug with #655586. Your CPU is too old for the current
ATLAS package.

You have three options: stick with the unoptimized BLAS (very slow),
create a custom ATLAS package (as explained in the README.Debian of
libatlas3gf-base), or give a try to OpenBLAS (libopenblas-base).

Thanks for your contribution,
