Trying to generate the packaging for the older but still widely used Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, the CBLAS detection step fails, despite the headers and libs being present on the system.
The main difference between libblas-dev from Ubuntu 14.04 and current Debian is the lack of pkgconfig file, which means the CBLAS detection skips the pkgconfig part and goes through the alternative detection strategy. The latter somehow fails to recognize the Ubuntu packaged files.
