Hi Tom,

The blacs and scalapack RPMs look fine to me.  They built, installed,
un-installed, etc. cleanly on a box thats running FC3 plus all the "yum
update"-s from the devel repo.

I also tried R-RScaLAPACK and had some annoying issue wrt gcc-g77
dependencies and it has nothing to do with R-RScaLAPACK itself.  I need
to build a fresh FC4-test box anyway (for other reasons) so I'll try R-
RScaLAPACK again over the weekend.

Ed
