In Arch Linux Arm and Manjaro Arm, Octave and R fail to launch with OpenBLAS 0.3.13-2. When run, it shows the error

error while loading shared libraries: libblas.so.3: cannot open shared object file

How to fix it?

The workaround was first proposed in Manjaro forum, and then in Arch Linux Arm forum.

One has to symlink /usr/lib/libopenblas.so.3 with the non existent /usr/lib/libblas.so.3.

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libopenblas.so.3 /usr/lib/libblas.so.3
