Package: julia
Version: 0.7.0-1
Severity: wishlist

A user suggested that we build julia against libblas.so.3 instead
of openblas, as said here
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=903879#10

However I have literally no interest to build julia against netlib blas
when OpenBLAS is available.
