Did you install libgslcblas in a system library directory, such
as /usr/lib?  If not, then it's likely that you'll have to set an
environment variable to point to it,
e.g. "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/my/local/library/directory; export
LD_LIBRARY_PATH" if you're using bash, or "setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/my/local/library/directory" under the C shell.
