Bug Description
Problem first alerted on Octave forum, but decided to be a Ubuntu issue with Openblas.
Using the apt installed version of Octave, the openblas library doesn't seem to be linked.
octave:1> version -lapack
ans = Linear Algebra PACKage Version 3.9.0
octave:2> version -blas
ans = unknown or reference BLAS
octave:3> tic; eig(rand(91)); toc
Elapsed time is 0.00454998 seconds.
octave:4> tic; eig(rand(92)); toc # This hangs forever.
BTW the snap version of Octave under Ubuntu 20.04 seems to work fine.
