Now the installation works fine, but scipy.test() failed

****************************************************************
WARNING: clapack module is empty
-----------
See scipy/INSTALL.txt for troubleshooting.
Notes:
* If atlas library is not found by scipy/system_info.py,
  then scipy uses flapack instead of clapack.
