Hello,

I have been re-reading the file README.Atlas (very interesting) and
I think this information is obsolete:

---8<---
To make use of Atlas, Debian users need to install the Atlas libraries
for
their given cpu architecture. Concretely, one of

    atlas2-base - Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra Software
    atlas2-p3 - Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra Software
    atlas2-p4 - Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra Software
    atlas2-athlon - Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra Software
--->8---

If I'm not mistaken, those packages have been replaced, respectively, by
atlas2-sse, atlas2-sse2 and atlas2-3dnow. May we change the list? For=20
example:

atlas2-base -  Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra Software, generic
shared
atlas2-sse  -  Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra Software, SSE1 shared
               (available on Pentium III and later processors)
atlas2-sse2 -  Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra Software, SSE2 shared
               (available on Pentium IV and later processors)
atlas2-3dnow - Automatically Tuned Linear Algebra Software, 3dnow shared
               (available on AMD 3dnow and later processors)

If so, we should also introduce small changes in some others paragraphs
of README.Atlas.

...and what about atlas3-base, atlas3-sse, atlas3-sse2, atlas3-3dnow?
And other architectures? May we substitute in the former paragraph
"s/Concretely, one of/For example, one of/" ?

Regards,
Rafa.
