Hello Brian,
The following output was when I run .configure with no option.
When I run it with --with-lapack = " *-L/usr/lib -llapack" *option the
following is the output of the "echos" towards the EOF
use_lapack is unset
with lapack is *-L/usr/lib -llapack #Only change.
*Use_External_lapack_true #
Lapack_libs -L$(R_HOME)/lib$(R_ARCH) -lRlapack* # this is still the same.*
Any possible pointers or cause for the above ?
Regards,
