--- Comment #15 from Kevin Kofler <kevin.kofler at chello.at> ---
As the author of the patch which started this thread, I'd also go with Eigen
(in fact, I wrote https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=251563#c11 a year ago,
but didn't get around to updating the Fedora package to pick up the changed
patch). I did the minimum change to get rid of the bundled library, but
observed right when I wrote it that it needs only one LAPACK function, so it'd
be fairly easy to use something different. Eigen seems a better fit for KDE
than clapack, and it also avoids the ugly compatibility issues between
different clapack implementations (reference clapack vs. ATLAS).

As for what version, I'd say the latest version (Eigen 3) would be the better
choice, it's not so nice to be stuck on an old version.
