Hi there,
I'm having real difficulties getting SciPy going on OS X 10.2. I've tried
compiling from two different source downloads and the most recent CVS
checkout. I have ATLAS, FFTW from Fink, and wxPython from a source build.
I for one would be very grateful if you could give a walkthrough of what
you did to get SciPy up-and-running on your machine.
All the best,
