The arpack-devel package distributed with CentOS 7 (arpack-devel-3.1.3-2.el7.x86_64) seems a bit old, as routine "seupdate" seems not recognized during
the "configure" step. This can be solved by installing arpack from github:
    git clone git@github.com:opencollab/arpack-ng.git
    cd arpack-ng
    ./bootstrap
    ./configure --prefix="some local prefix"
    make; make install
Current release as of Aug. 20th 2018 seems to compile OK with CentOS blas-devel
