[SciPy-dev] Problems with building scipy

[Nils Wagner]

Hi all,

Finally, I decided to use FORTRAN LAPACK/BLAS libraries instead of ATLAS.
The environmental variables are set as follows
vs/scipy> echo $ATLAS
None
cvs/scipy> echo $BLAS
None
cvs/scipy> echo $LAPACK
None
cvs/scipy> echo $LAPACK_SRC
/var/tmp/src/lapack
cvs/scipy> echo $BLAS_SRC
/var/tmp/src/blas

Now python2.3 setup.py build yields

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 112, in ?
