Missing i?amin_ symbols in libblas-dev:amd64

[Ian Giestas Pauli]

I'm having trouble finding the i?amin_ symbols in the static files provided by libblas-dev

Here is the output on a Ubuntu 22.04, with libblas3, libblas-dev installed
$ lsb_release -rd

$ apt-cache policy libblas-dev

(I'll truncate here because it repeats "U isamax_")

I've looked into the `SRC` code of this package and it seems `i?smin` is missing there too, so it's not the package's fault. I looks like it is a common `blas` extension that exists in intel's MKL and other vendors but it is not implemented in the reference blas implementation.

I'm closing this since there is nothing you can do about it I guess, thanks for your time anyway.
