Public bug reported: The latest stable version of atlas is 3.8.3. This was released 2009-02-18, whereas the 3.6.0 version was released in 2004. Many critical fixes are available in the latest stable release, so it would be very helpful if we could get a more recent release into Ubuntu. 3.6.0 is known to give wrong results in several situations, which is highly serious when it comes to scientific work. As a developer of GNU Octave I can also say that we deal with quite a few bug reports that are due to broken versions of BLAS. For the Octave development team it would be of great value if a more recent version of atlas could be released to the Ubuntu users.
