I don't have 5.3 installed yet so I can't check this out for certain.
It seems that IDL 5.2 did not link against libblas so it was not
necessary
for its operation. If 5.3 now uses libblas and it does not find it it
may
be that you do not have it installed.
In IRIX 6.5 libblas is not on the default list of installed items. It is
on the Foundation 1 CD in package ftn_eoe (specifically it is
ftn_eoe.sw.libblas).
I presume that IDL has not gone the MATLAB route and created a 64 bit
version.
But just in case it has, and you are running IRIX64 you would also need
to
install ftn_eoe.sw64.libblas.

This files is part of Irix, not IDL. On my Irix 6.5.4 system, it resides in
/usr/lib/libblas.so (1896084 bytes).
Do you run an environment setup script before starting IDL, such as
source /usr/local/rsi/idl/bin/idl_setup
or
. /usr/local/rsi/idl/bin/idl_setup.ksh
or do you just execute the idl startup script which resides in
/usr/local/bin ?
Cheers,
Liam.
