[SciPy-Dev] Bento build - Test failures

[Scott Sinclair]

Hi,

I guess this is aimed at David C..

When scipy has been built with Bento/waf there are several test
failures related to undefined Fortran symbols (see an example below).
Pauli thinks it's related to library link order (see discussion at
https://github.com/scipy/scipy/pull/158).

It's not yet clear to me how to define the order of the flags at link
time. I'm guessing that waf needs to be told about this in the package
level bscript?

ERROR: Failure: ImportError
