Also, do you have libopenblas-base installed? That package was implicated
in <https://bugs.debian.org/903514>, and removing it seems to be a
workaround for that bug (at least in unstable).

If in doubt, open a separate bug and send details there, so that your
situation won't be mixed up with other people's. Bug numbers are an
unlimited resource :-)
