I don't know Linux nor gotblas, but I think that here you are telling
numpy distutils that all libraries and include are under AMD and
UMFPACK
So, it will look for the Blas libraries in these directories.
If your blas libraries are somewhere else, you need to specify the
correct library and include_dirs
(in my site.cfg on Windows XP I left these commented out, because
everything is in python lib)
