Paul (or anyone) - You're right, there are other dependencies: error: Failed dependencies: libamd.so.2()(64bit) is needed by python-scipy-0.6.0-3.el5.x86_64 libfftw3.so.3()(64bit) is needed by python-scipy-0.6.0-3.el5.x86_64 libumfpack.so.5()(64bit) is needed by python-scipy-0.6.0-3.el5.x86_64 I did some searching around and found that libamd and libumfpack are both included in something called SparseSuite (http://www.cise.ufl.edu/research/sparse/SuiteSparse/ ). I found links to the RPM for this package here: http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/4852092/com/suitesparse-3.0.0-1.... but unfortunately can't connect to any of the mirrors. Does anyone have any tips or pre-made RPMs for SparseSuite or the two libraries mentioned above? I haven't even started to look for the FFT library yet... --Mike On Apr 24, 2008, at 7:31 PM, Paul Barrett wrote:

Mike,

Attached are the following RPMs:

atlas, blas, lapack, python-numpy, python-scipy

You may need some additional packages such as fftw3, etc. which are readily available in one or more repositories.

I'll send the devel RPMs in the next email.

I hope that you get them.

In answer to your offer - yes, that would be great if I could get the RPMs, as I am completely unable to compile scipy on my own. I'm using f77, and getting complaints about not having a Fortran 90 compiler, and not having compiled with LAPACK with -fPIC (which I certainly _tried_ to do).

Anyway, if you have time to put them on EPEL, that would help me and hopefully other frustrated RHEL users out there. Otherwise, let me know the best way for me to get the files.

Thanks,

Mike

I have numpy, scipy, and matplotlib RPMs for EL5 x86_64, if you want them. I also think that I have the i386 ones too, but the SRPMs are of course available.

I've been meaning to offer them to the EPEL repository, but I haven't made the time.

Wasn't sure how far back to go, so here's several more lines' worth:

Here's the important one:

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libfblas.a(cgemm.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC /usr/local/lib/libfblas.a: could not read symbols: Bad value

You need to compile BLAS to be relocatable using the -fPIC flag to the compilation flags. If you are following the directions on that wiki strictly, replace this line:

g77 -fno-second-underscore -O2 -c *.f

with this line:

g77 -fPIC -fno-second-underscore -O2 -c *.f
