The goal of Math::GSL is to port the GSL library to Perl. While working on this project, I realized some function from the BLAS subsystem like gsl_blas_sdsdot require a gsl_vector_float datatype. The problem is that the functions related to this datatype like gsl_vector_float_alloc seem to be deprecated. Is it normal? Shouldn't the concerning BLAS function be taken out of the documentation if they are based on deprecated datatypes? Thanks Thierry Moisan
