On one system, with apt-cache search blas,
I find find a blas as well as many others.
On a system pointing to etch, I don't see blas but do find several others,
including atlas3-base, lapack3, refblas3 and a bunch beginning with
scalapack. Each of these names has several suffixes such
as -dev, -doc, -pic and -test

These all refer to linear algebra routines as I'm guessing that is
what you are interested in.
