Commented Issue: Algorithms.LinearAlgebra.Acml disappeared [5720]

Algorithms.LinearAlgebra.Acml namesapace as well as several others - apart from MKL have disappeared in the latest version.
This means that native wrapper tests no longer build.
In general I must say that it is horrendously complicated to enable any non-managed BLAS engine.
It would be really nice if default download included at least one non-managed BLAS implementation - e.g. the reference one. As it stands, one has to spend huge amount of time obtaining pieces of software from various sources.
It also means that default (managed) implementation is several factors of magnitude slower than Matlab, R or the like when it comes to manipulating sizeable matrices.
Comments: I removed the ACML provider since ACML no longer supports 32-bit systems. I also removed the Goto provider since the Goto project is dead and was forked into OpenBLAS, but OpenBLAS currently doesn't build on Windows. The MKL provider will be available on NuGet with the 2.4 release of Math.NET Numerics. That should simplify things. I've been working on an ATLAS provider, but ran ran into a snag with the Windows build - an issue getting the full LAPACK package to build with ATLAS 3.10 (builds fine on Linux though). >This means that native wrapper tests no longer build. The tests should build with most recent code on GitHub.
