+LAPACK provides routines for solving systems of simultaneous linear
+equations, least-squares solutions of linear systems of equations,
+eigenvalue problems, and singular value problems.
+
+This script builds LAPACK against ATLAS. As such it requires ATLAS as installed
+by the appropriate SlackBuild. This build conflicts with the lapack.SlackBuild
+but you may try to have both installed if you definitely want, see below.
+
+Do read over README.SLACKWARE *before* building this.
+
+NOTE: The download link provides a package with lapack-3.3.1 patched against
+some of the presently known bugs of the 3.3.1 release. Please consult the
+LAPACK-3.3.1 errata file (http://www.netlib.org/lapack/Errata/index2.html) for
+more details about the corrected bugs.

+The following notes apply just for LAPACK built against ATLAS.
+
+IMPORTANT NOTES:
+
+
+1) If you update ATLAS, you MUST also rebuild and reinstall LAPACK, even if
+ there is no update available for LAPACK! Otherwise you end up with a
+ broken/incomplete LAPACK library!
+
+2) This SlackBuild conflicts with the lapack.SlackBuild which is meant mainly
+ for compilation against the reference BLAS. You may install LAPACK by
+ this SlackBuild in parallel with the LAPACK built against the reference BLAS
+ if you use the SYS_DESTDIR and DEFAULT_DOCS variables (see below), but then
+ you are on your own, especially when compiling other software against LAPACK
+ and BLAS/ATLAS.
+
+3) There are a few extra variables which you may want or need to give
+ appropriate values when calling the lapack-atlas.SlackBuild: SYS_DESTDIR,
+ DEFAULT_DOCS, USE_ATLAS_PT_LIBS and TEST_LAPACK.
+
+ SYS_DESTDIR is set by default to "/usr" and is the system destination
+ directory. When installing the package produced by this SlackBuild,
+ LAPACK's files will be written to $SYS_DESTDIR/lib (or lib64).
+ Documentation files are written to /usr/doc/lapack-atlas-$VERSION if not
+ otherwise stated (see below).
+ You may want to change the value of SYS_DESTDIR to avoid conflicts (see
+ the notes above). IMPORTANT: SYS_DESTDIR has to have an absolute
+ path as value.
+
+ DEFAULT_DOCS has the default value "yes", which means that docs go
+ to /usr/doc/lapack-atlas-$VERSION, but you may want to let the docs to
+ go to $SYS_DESTDIR/doc/lapack-atlas-$VERSION. For this, just set this
+ variable to something like "no".
+
+ USE_ATLAS_PT_LIBS is set by default to "yes" which means that this script
+ will try to build LAPACK against the threaded ATLAS libs. On a single
+ processor machine these are missing and you will get a WARNING which you
+ can ignore, since ATLAS will not create these libraries on such a machine.
+ On a multi processor machine the WARNING should not be there and you need to
+ set this variable to "no" if you want to force LAPACK to build against the
+ single threaded ATLAS libraries. At this point in time this is discouraged
+ and you are on your own if you do it, especially when compiling other
+ software which depends on LAPACK and ATLAS.
+
+ TEST_LAPACK is set by default to "no" which means that this script will not
+ try to run the LAPACK test suite. Set it to "yes" if you want the opposite.
+
+ All these settings may be done the usual way on the command line when
+ calling this SlackBuild, you do not have to edit the script.

+lapack-atlas: LAPACK-ATLAS (LAPACK customized for build against ATLAS)
+lapack-atlas:
+lapack-atlas: LAPACK provides routines for solving systems of simultaneous linear
+lapack-atlas: equations, least-squares solutions of linear systems of equations,
+lapack-atlas: eigenvalue problems, and singular value problems. The associated matrix
+lapack-atlas: factorizations (LU, Cholesky, QR, SVD, Schur, generalized Schur) are
+lapack-atlas: also provided, as are related computations such as reordering of the
+lapack-atlas: Schur factorizations and estimating condition numbers. Dense and banded
+lapack-atlas: matrices are handled, but not general sparse matrices. In all areas,
+lapack-atlas: similar functionality is provided for real and complex matrices, in
+lapack-atlas: both single and double precision.
