[SciPy-user] Scipy Linear Algebra functions

[Mark Treiber]

Hi Greg.  I had the same problem a couple of weeks ago but solved it
pretty easily.  Looking through the fink package it appears that the
scipy setup.py script has been modified so that scipy_distutils is
supposed to be installed with f2py instead of scipy.  A separate
scipy_distutils tgz should have been downloaded when f2py was
installed.  Simply unpack it and run the setup script accordingly and
it should install and work.  The command I used was something like
"/sw/bin/python2.3 setup.py install".

Mark.
