Yes. My hint about the build-dependencies aimed at that. | Does it help to use --with-blas=blas or --with-blas=-lblas so that the | configure script doesn't try to detect it automatically? I used to set it that way (still commented out in debian/rules) but it is not needed AFAICT provided one has suitable packages to build against installed (in the chroot, or container, or on the machine).
