[SciPy-User] site.cfg problems : scipy can't find BLAS

[Minh-Tri Pham]

Hi everyone,

I've been using scipy for 4 years but I haven't posted a single message.
Sorry. :)

The following is my site.cfg configuration that works with GotoBLAS2 (at
least on my end):

[DEFAULT]
library_dirs = /usr/local/lib
include_dirs = /usr/local/include

[blas]
libraries = goto2_core2p-r1.13
language = fortran

[lapack]
libraries = goto2_core2p-r1.13
language = fortran

The trick is to use [blas] and [lapack] instead of [blas_opt] and [lapack_opt].

Best regards,
Minh-Tri
