Hmm. This is definitely a blas-related problem. What other errors do you see. A quick fix is to uncomment the blas_info=0 (line 15 of scipy/corelib/setup.py) and rerun setup (this will not try to build _dotblas.c I'd like to track down what the real problem is though. Do you see any output below blas_opt_info: when you run setup.py For example, my system shows. blas_opt_info: atlas_blas_threads_info: Setting PTATLAS=ATLAS NOT AVAILABLE atlas_blas_info: FOUND: libraries = ['f77blas', 'cblas', 'atlas'] library_dirs = ['/usr/lib/atlas'] language = c include_dirs = ['/usr/include/atlas'] These include_dirs are needed to pick up cblas.h -Travis
