Re: OS X and dolfin

not sure if this has been previously been addressed, but dolfin doesn't seem to recognize that on os x machines, BLAS/LAPACK are typically handled via a framework vecLib. while you can add LDFLAGS=-framework vecLib
but it still appends "-lblas" when linking, which causes errors.



We add '-lblas' to avoid a bug in the way the Debian ufsparse libraries are built. It's not a nice fix, but it isn't fun writing configure scripts dealing with all the bugs in various packages ;). I'll take a look today whether or not this has been fixed in the latest Debian packages.

On a related issue, what the status of the new build system? I thought that it was almost ready a few months ago?
