I tested it and it probably works, since after recompiling numarray (0.8) the file lapack_lite2.so shrinked from 1300K to 94K. Running strace on a python script that inverse a matrix shows that it loads libblas and liblapack. Thank you for your help, Nadav. -----Original Message----- From: Todd Miller [mailto:jmiller@stsci.edu] Sent: Tue 16-Dec-03 15:31 To: Nadav Horesh Cc: numpy-discussion Subject: Re: [Numpy-discussion] Any way to link numarray againstLAPACK/ATLAS? I haven't tried this, but the "theory" is that you can set the USE_LAPACK environment variable to 1 and it will switch to an alternate link pattern in the (top level) file addons.py.

It seems that section 13.1.1 (Installation using LAPACK) is not valid any more --- is there another way?
