Confirmed. atlas fails to build from source on i386. See http://launchpadlibrarian.net/16970147/buildlog_ubuntu-intrepid-i386.atlas_3.6.0-21.5ubuntu1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz. Therefore you get the old 3.6.0-21.1ubuntu3 libatlas-base-dev version, which does not depend on libgfortran3.
On amd64 atlas was correctly build and on amd64 libatlas-base-dev correctly depends on libgfortran3. So when the FTBFS on i386 is fixed, the dependency issue will be solved. ** Changed in: atlas (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- Atlas blas and lapack libraries unware of gfortran dependency https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/261089 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
