kthxbye
This bug may not belong to elmerfem but its severity is serious. Which
is why it was Cc:ed to the atlas and mumps maintainers.

On ia64 libmumps-scotch-4.9.2 depends on libatlas3gf-base. No
alternatives.
I assume that dependency on libatlas3gf-base is picked up through
shlibs. If that's incorrect then whatever package had wrong shlibs
should be fixed. Looking at
https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=mumps&arch=ia64&ver=4.9.2.dfsg-6&stamp=1290984683&file=log&as=raw
both blas and atlas were installed (atlas was probably picked up from
libscalapack-mpi or some other dependency), and atlas doesn't list
alternatives in its shlibs file.

I don't know what this is supposed to mean.
