There is probably a case for the lapack bindings to exist independently of this package #50

Could be done as a dub sub-package?

dataPulverizer commented 8 years ago

I didn't know about sub-dub, just looked at it in the manual. You guys know more about the DUB packaging system in which I am still a novice but my thinking is that lapack can exist as a library with cblas binding as a dependency that DUB can manage.

At the moment we have scid, mir, others, cblas. It may be a good idea for packages to be fragmented to allow users to piece what they want together until things solidify a bit more.

I agree, it would probably be better if it were a separate package under DlangScience, like the BLAS bindings. I'm not too thrilled about the sub-package idea. Deimos is also an option.
