python - Installing PLASMA on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Fails -

i'm attempting install plasma on machine , appeared working smoothly failed.

i attempted post error in plasma message board , wasn't approved, i'm not sure if site still active or not.

my ultimate goal install hiplarm r package, i'm following instructions posted on hiplarm website (using openblas).

here steps i've taken:

1. download plasma installer here: http://icl.cs.utk.edu/plasma/software/index.html ~/downloads directory (version 2.7.1 @ time of writing, have break link due 2-link-limit)
2. run tar -xf plasma-installer_2.7.1.tar.gz it's extracted ~/plasma-installer_2.7.1.tar.gz
3. in ~/plasma-installer_2.7.1.tar.gz folder, run following command (as per hiplarm website's instructions):

./setup.py --prefix="/usr" --blaslib="-l/usr/lib -lopenblas" \ --cflags="-o3 -fpic -i/usr/include" \ --fflags="-o3 -fpic" --noopt="-fpic" --downlapc \ --notesting --ldflags_c="-i/usr/include"

unfortunately, that's far got, since failed.

here's output:

any feedback on how install appreciated.

thanks help.

it's permissions error on lapack library. running script sudo should fix issue.
