The revo-mkl package is stale. It was a one-off; its 'closed source but
freely distributed' annoyed a lot of people, and Revo no longer cares about
Ubuntu (or Debian).

Just install libopenblas-dev --- it is also multithreaded, but open source
and under development (as a successor to the not-really-open-source GotoBLAS).
