ilaver_ is indeed a standard fortran routine provided in lapack.
The scipy package in archive looks good:

dpkg -L python3-scipy | rg '.*.so$' | xargs readelf -d | grep NEEDED |
sort | uniq

Sounds good to me if exporting these environment variables solves the
problem.
But what happens during run time? Will scipy mix the usage of
(libopenblas.so) and (libblas.so + liblapack.so) ?
