[SciPy-User] Install Scipy with Anaconda's MKL libraries

[David Hagen]

I reinstalled Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0. Then following various advice on
the web, I copied rc.exe and rcdll.exe from

C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\8.1\bin\x64

into

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\bin\x86_amd64

It seems that MSVC++ 14.0 and that weird file copying is necessary for
compiling Numpy. I can now install Numpy from source using python setup.py
install. I then copied the site.cfg into every numpy/distutils directory I
could find.

However, compiling Scipy gives a LNK2001 linking error with some _gfortran
symbols:

mach.lib(d1mach.o) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
_gfortran_st_write
mach.lib(d1mach.o) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
_gfortran_st_write_done
mach.lib(d1mach.o) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
_gfortran_stop_numeric_f08
mach.lib(d1mach.o) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
_gfortran_transfer_character_write
mach.lib(d1mach.o) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
_gfortran_transfer_integer_write
mach.lib(d1mach.o) : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
_gfortran_stop_string
