Things are not "broken", things are "different", and we reserve the
right to make major changes with major releases. Everything in
Fedora/EPEL is rebuilt against R with no Rblas/Rlapack, we'll enable the
shim Rblas in the next major R release. In the interim, you can modify
the spec file and rebuild locally if you're unable to wait and are
willing to also rebuild any affected R packages locally.

I apologize for the inconvenience, but we do not test with openblas, and
there is never a good time to change things. :)
