[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #57110] `version -blas` reports "unknown or reference BLAS"

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #11, bug #57110 (project octave):

I like using the Debian way and we use a similar thing with the Windows builds
for Octave (but just by renaming the OpenBLAS library to be libblas.dll).  But
I don't see that we can change the default BLAS library detection in the
configure script to always use -lblas because the library might not even be
installed on the build system with that name.  Another option is to
dynamically load the library at run time, but that brings up a whole other set
of issues.

It would be sweet if there were a standard BLAS library function that returned
a version string.
