[SciPy-user] Overflow Errors

[bryan cole]

Try:

 ./configure --with-libs='-lieee'

This should sort out Numeric overflow errors (well it works for me).
Add any other configure options you usually use.

I'm using py-2.2.1 (from the stock RH8.0 source rpm): for an rpm-based
system, you can install the python source-rpm then modify the
python.spec file by adding the "--with-libs='-lieee'" to the configure
line in the spec file so it reads (python.spec, line 159 for the RH8.0
src-rpm):

%configure --enable-ipv6 --enable-unicode=ucs2 --with-libs='-lieee'

You can then rebuild the rpm in the usual way.
