Hi,

What to do:

1. Send bug report to Debian. Their package is broken.

2. Install Scipy manually to your home directory:

sudo apt-get build-dep scipy

wget https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/s/scipy/scipy-
0.13.3.tar.gz#md5=0547c1f8e8afad4009cc9b5ef17a2d4d

tar xzf scipy-0.13.3.tar.gz

cd scipy-0.13.3

python setup.py install --user


This installs it under ~/.local/lib/python2.7
You can remove it from there later on when it's not needed any more.

Don't use root/sudo for installation, except for installing
the build dependencies via apt-get.
