Problem linking CBLAS to MKL BLAS library

[saschwarz]

I am trying to build plasma 2.4.5 on a RHEL 5 computer where I have MKL 10.3 installed. I configure the build to use the blas library that is part of MKL and to download everything else. However, the build fails when it tries to build the tmpc.c code that tests the C interface to BLAS. I get the error message that it can't find the dscal_ function.

When I build plasma downloading everything it works okay but the instruction say it is preferable to have an optimized BLAS library so I would like to be to use the BLAS that is part of MKL. Do you have any suggestions on how to build plasma using the MKL BLAS?

Hello,

what is the command line you used to run the installer ? It's probably something missing in the options.
