So, scipy was not built against blas/lapack libraries in
/home/nwagner/src/{blas,lapack} but was built against the ones from 
/usr/lib (and that probably require atlas libraries). Please, read again
my previous messages and carefully apply the given instructions (soon 
I'll stop responding if there is no progress when there should be).

So, there must have some failures when building flapack extension module.
Check the messages from scipy build process.

Btw, why do you want to build scipy against Fortran BLAS/LAPACK in the 
first place? It is not needed if you only want to build symeig against 
Fortran BLAS/LAPACK.
