Newbie OpenBLAS Packaging Question



Hi

In my Debian/Ubuntu /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/openblas-serial directory I have...

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  8435720 Jun  2 10:55 libblas.so.3
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13712616 Jun  2 10:55 liblapack.so.3
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14269784 Jun  2 10:55 libopenblas-r0.3.8.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root       21 Jun  2 10:55 libopenblas.so.0 -> libopenblas-r0.3.8.so

What is the difference between the libblas.so.3 and libopenblas-r0.3.8.so? I note they are not the same size.

I have a horrible suspicion that I have been linking to a reference Blas library (the libblas.so.3), through the update-alternatives mechanism, and not OpenBLAS (the libopenblas.so.0 -> libopenblas-r0.3.8.so).

Kind regards
