I'm currently needing to run a program on cygwin with a school-related project. The program is called MPB, and a very easy tutorial on how to "set it up" is given. It basically just says to install "these and these" programs when getting cygwin.
I did this and I'm getting tons of error message. Specifically, when I try to install my program in cygwin, it can't find lapack and BLAS. I've tried to install it manually but to no avail, and a quick search query tells me that "If I select this application when installing cygwin, it should install them automatically". Well that's just great, only problem is it doesn't. Apparently I'm supposed to have an liblapack.a and a libblas.a file in my /lib folder, but I don't. I do however have a folder called lapack that includes two .dll files. One cygblas-0.dll and a cyglapack-0.dll, but I don't see what I'm supposed to do with these. Does anyone have any knowledge about this? I really need to get this program running. I did manage to install BLAS manually and put the libblas.a file in the /lib folder and that removed one error message, but I'm still getting error messages about the missing liblapack.a file, and I cannot for the death of me figure out how to install it! Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Lapack-won%27t-install-with-cygwin--tp32503963p32503963.html Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
