[Pkg-scicomp-devel] Bug#577610: libatlas3gf-amd64sse3: dpkg-shlibdeps inadvertently creates dependency on accelerated package

[Chris Lawrence]

Package: libatlas3gf-amd64sse3
Version: 3.8.3-19
Severity: important

If the alternatives are set to auto or pointed to the accelerated
libblas.so.3gf and liblapack.so.3gf provided by this package, any
Debian packages built will have a strict dependency on
libatlas3gf-amd64sse3 rather than the weaker (e.g. libblas.so.3gf |
libatlas3gf-base | ...) dependency.  This may affect other accelerated
libatlas variants as well.

This problem appears whether or not libatlas-dev and
libatlas-amd64sse3-dev are installed.
