You hit the nail on the head. I'm using Gentoo linux, which is a source based distribution. The install file used here places those files: /usr/lib/libtstatlas.a /usr/lib/libatlas.a /usr/lib/libf77blas.a /usr/lib/libcblas.a /usr/share/atlas/liblapack.a I copied /usr/share/atlas/liblapack.a to /usr/lib, reran ldconfig, and setup.py worked. Thanks! I'll submit the bug to bugs.gentoo.org. -- Stephen On Sunday 13 October 2002 12:49 pm, Pearu Peterson wrote:

Did you installed ATLAS from source?
If yes, then note that when giving a command make install in ATLAS source directory, it actually does not install the libraries anywhere, it just builds them. You have to copy the libraries manually where your system can find them, preferably to /usr/local/lib/atlas. Very important: before you copy, you must apply the instructions from http://math-atlas.sourceforge.net/errata.html#completelp
If no, then what Linux distribution are you using? Check that the directory where ATLAS libraries were installed, contains at least the following four files: libatlas.a libcblas.a libf77blas.a liblapack.a
