Reporting mistake in the GSL reference, release 2.7 |

Dear GSL developers
I am Jiayin Gu, a GSL user from China. I recently found maybe a mistake in
the GSL reference, 2.7. In the description of LU decomposition (Section 14.1).
It states that
"The j-th column of the matrix P is given by the k-th column of the identity
matrix, where k = p_j the j-th element of the permutation vector."
However, I tested this LU decomposition routine and found that the statement
should be replaced by
"The j-th column of the identity matrix is placed as the k-th column of the
matrix P, where k=p_j the j-th element of the permutation vector."
I tested this on Ubuntu 20.04 with g++ compiler. The GSL library is installed
with the command "sudo apt install gsl-bin". Executing the command "sudo apt
install --upgrade gsl-bin" gives "gsl-bin is already the newest version
(2.5+dfsg-6build1)." in the print. The attachment is the test code.
I hope the developers can fix this issue.
Best regards
Jiayin Gu
