+LAPACK INSTALLATION:
+ - LAPACK can be installed with make. Configuration haev to be set in the
+ make.inc file. A make.inc.example for a Linux mahcine running GNU compilers
+ is given in the main directory. Some specific make.inc are also available in
+ the INSTALL directory
+ - LAPACK includes also the CMAKE build. You will need to have CMAKE installed
+ on your machine (CMAKE is available at http://www.cmake.org/). CMAKE will allow
+ an easy installation on a Windows Machine

+LAPACK has been thoroughly tested, on many different

+A list of known problems, bugs, and compiler errors for LAPACK is
