Can this be built with OpenBLAS instead of the proprietary MKL? #77

Hi,

I'd like to package gcta for GNU Guix. Since gcta is Free Software I'd like to avoid linking it with the proprietary Intel MKL. Is it possible to build it with OpenBLAS instead?

Thanks, Ricardo

Dear Ricardo,

The OpenBLAS has been implemented as an alternative to MKL in the ARM version, but it may require some configuration effort to use it in x86.

Thanks for the quick response! I've packaged it for the guix-science-nonfree channel for now.

I'd be happy to add it to the Guix main channel when it's possible to build it with OpenBLAS on x86_64 as well.
