Didier,

Thanks for your bug report.  You reported two issues.  I cannot
replicate the first one:

On the other hand, the second issue should be fixed in SVN now:

It was apparently a problem with the --with-atlas configure option in
debian/rules.

I think we will release 3.0.0-7 soon with a "closes: #468323" in
debian/changelog.  If the bug persists, please feel free to reopen this
report.
