.. _ubuntu-problem:
Known problem on Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit (i486)
...........................................
With Ubuntu 12.04 running on 32-bit Intel architecture processors the following
error has been observed when running the tests included with kwant: "Arrays are
not almost equal to 7 decimals". That problem seems to be due to a bug in the
OpenBLAS package included with that version of Ubuntu. It can be worked-around
by installing a different BLAS. Execute the following shell commands::
sudo apt-get install libblas3gf
sudo update-alternatives --config libblas.so.3gf
and select the "libblas.so.3gf" alternative when prompted by the second command.
