* Package name : clapack Version : 3.2.1 Upstream Author : The University of Tennessee * URL : http://www.netlib.org/clapack/ * License : BSD Programming Lang: C Description : Basic Linear Algebra Reference implementations library CLAPACK a comprehensive FORTRAN library that does linear algebra operations including matrix inversions, least squared solutions to linear sets of equations, eigenvector analysis, singular value decomposition, etc. It is a very comprehensive and reputable package that has found extensive use in the scientific community. Remark: As it was discussed on the Debian Science mailing list[1] there are good reasons[2] to prefer lapacke over clapack. Since some upstreams are relying on clapack anyway and the effort of porting from clapack to lapacke might be to hard it is here provided as well. Please try to teach upstream to switch to lapacke to consolidate the code base to only one implementation.
