I'm not really an expert on BLAS-y things, but wouldn't there be more
problems upstream with R if it weren't able to find the local BLAS? I
was under the impression that R shipped it's own BLAS but could also
be directed to one at compile time -- either way, I would guess that
many other would break if the whole BLAS went missing for whatever
reason.
to Sven: Did you use a repository build or compile it yourself? And
did you touch the BLAS or R's linker flags?
Best,
Michael
