Hi. I have problems installing scipy-core from source code on a Rocks Cluster distribution of Linux running on x86-64 hardware. The error messages tell me:

I saw something similar to this just the other day. In my case, the problem was that scipy discovered broken libblas.* softlinks in /usr/lib and tried to build against them. It looks like something similar is happening here, check your atlas/blas/lapack installation. Darren -- Darren S. Dale, Ph.D. dd55@cornell.edu
