[Numpy-discussion] ImportError: libatlas.so.3: cannot open shared object file

[Allan Kamau]

I have built and installed numpy on Debian from source successfully as
follows.

export LAPACK=/usr/lib/lapack/liblapack.so;export
ATLAS=/usr/lib/atlas-base/libatlas.so;
python setup.py build;
python setup.py install;

Then I change directory from the numpy sources directory. Then I give the
command "python -c 'import numpy; numpy.test()' I get the error pasted
below. How can I resource this issue?
