Dear Mr. Gianfranco Costamagna, Thank you very much for your mail.
Your mail makes me understand your points, and I agree them. However, unfortunately for us, I could not resolve the issues. (I tried them before, but I could not.) When I prepared the debian package, I needed libmumps-seq-4.10.0. Without libmumps-seq-4.10.0, the SDPA package installed by apt-get could not work, since apt-get could not know that SDPA requires the mumps library. And, as for OpenBLAS, as you already know that we switched from ATLAS to OpenBLAS. A main reason is that OpenBLAS is much faster than ATLAS. It would be great that OpenBLAS would work on more plathomes. Thank you very much again.
