I tried and it works out of the box.
So far I was doing
./configure --with-lapack-prefix=-"-lopenblas"
without success
Now, I understand it better and finally I'm very happy to keep openblas in
a custom directory, that way I can link the program I build from source to
that if I want to and let the others packages from the official repos which
rely on blas stable.
Thank you very much, I learnt a lot today.
Thanks to you too. I learnt something very useful: it appears that
openblas is now the standard to beat!
For good measure I tried current gretl + current openblas on a
64-bit system (Fedora 17) and it outperformed ATLAS blas. The margin
was not very big for very large matrix multiplications, but openblas
did very well on relatively small multiplications too, where ATLAS
is slower than the basic netlib blas.
