R help - Aug 2010 - Trouble configuring R to use ACML

I am trying to get R to use the ACML BLAS, specifically the 'mp' version
for
multithreading. 

I have installed acml-4-4-0-gfortran-64bit

I added /opt/acml4.4.0/gfortran64_mp/lib to $LD_LIBRARY_PATH. 

I ran: sudo ./configure --with-blas="-L/opt/acml4.4.0/gfortran64_mp/lib
-lacml_mp"

At the end of the configuration, the only external library listed is
readline, and at the end of my post here is a section of my config.log that
shows the problem. Any ideas as to what I'm missing here? I'm running
Ubuntu
Server 10.


------ config.log -------
configure:28567: checking for dgemm_ in -L/opt/acml4.4.0/gfortran64_mp/lib

This is easier if you simply link to the ACML BLAS as an alternative 
to Rblas.so -- see the R-admin manual.

If you need further help, please ask on the R-devel list (see the 
posting guide).  It seems likely that you missed the comment in the 
R-admin manual about ensuring that the ACML lib directory is in 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH, so please check the manual subsection carefully. 
(More generally, you may well need to add that directory to the ld.so 
cache: some installation of ACML arrange to do so, some do not.  I 
have

gannet% cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d//acml-x86_64.conf
/opt/acml4.4.0/gfortran64/lib
/opt/acml4.4.0/gfortran64_mp/lib
.)
