[SciPy-User] Problem with Installation of Scipy on Macbook

[manisha pujari]

Hello everyone,

This is the first time I am using scipy and I am having much trouble to
just install it on my macbook. I am using Python 2.6 and numpy 1.6.0.
I downloaded scipy0.9.0 tar.gz file  from the web link
http://sourceforge.net/projects/scipy/files/scipy/ and tried to install it
from the source.
But on giving the command

scipy-0.9.0$ python setup.py build

it is always giving the following problem :

Warning: No configuration returned, assuming unavailable.blas_opt_info:
  FOUND:
    extra_link_args = ['-Wl,-framework', '-Wl,Accelerate']
    define_macros = [('NO_ATLAS_INFO', 3)]
    extra_compile_args = ['-faltivec',
'-I/System/Library/Frameworks/vecLib.framework/Headers']

I am unable to understand where and what exactly the problem is.
Can anyone please help me? I will be really thankful for a response.
