I would suspect that every Chinese medical technology company has deep ties to the Chinese government and communist party, but good to know about this one.

@helmet91@mastodon.social These people are literally faced with genocide and famine and you’re out here acting like a dollar-store Sherlock Holmes.
I’ve told you several times now that I’ve had live video conversations over Signal with Nouran and her brother Yousef.
I don’t know what your problem is but what you’re doing by spreading this FUD is deplorable. I just saw that you wrote this blog post also:

Remember the cat litter story from https://social.treehouse.systems/@mgorny/115107752572750888?
So, the vendor insisted that the delivery company will take two packages with a single label. The delivery man disagreed. So over the weekend I had to keep asking, and finally got two labels. The delivery man took the packages. I got my money back.
As soon as I found the time, I've left a negative comment on the sales platform, explaining the problem in detail. And what? With a speed of a shitty script I got a request to change the opinion. Of course, it's all a cheap template, cut in the middle because it didn't fit in the explanation length limit. "Oh dearie, could we know why did you give us a negative opinion? Blah blah blah." Yeah, sure. You could have just read it!
But well, I've changed my comment. To one that's even worse. Added that they shamelessly automatically send requests to change the opinion. The platform wanted me to confirm that they didn't offer me a reward for this change of opinion 😆.

I was trying to package #FlexiBLAS for #Gentoo, and to be honest, it doesn't look that good.
The first red flag is lack of an open bug tracker. Apparently, there is the tracker on GitLab that's limited to "members of their group and selected external contributors", but it doesn't seem to be used much. So it's "send us an email", and wonder how many people sent us the same bug report before.
The git repository is currently at something tagged 3.4.80 that seems to be prerelease, and its build system is quite broken. Not exactly the best path to verify that the bugs you are hitting are still there.
Now, upstream seems to insist on either using vendored netlib #LAPACK, or statically linking to the system library (we don't install the static libraries). Apparently I can specify the shared libraries instead, but it doesn't work — and it's unclear to me whether it doesn't work because I'm using the shared libraries, or because it doesn't support my LAPACK version. If I build LAPACK without deprecated symbols, it refuses to load it at runtime because of missing symbols. And if I build it with deprecated symbols, it fails to find some symbols at CMake time.
Honestly, I feel like I've spent too much time on this project already, especially given that its future is entirely unclear to me — the current git is quite broken, I have no clue how many issues were reported already and whether my bug reports will receive any reply. It definitely doesn't fare well for a package that we might start to rely heavily on. We don't want a cathedral there.
