Otherwise, try Ubuntu, which is easier to install than mac os x on supported hardware (I am not kidding). Both distributions have correct blas, lapack and testers/timers (I basically copied their scheme and adapted it for the rpms_). They also package atlas correctly. > > Ah, I had this problem the last time also, and Robert Kern kindly > suggested the same thing. I'd totally forgotten about it. :( This one has nothing to do with Suse, at least. When compiling softwares, you have to install a lot of -devel (-dev on debian) packages. This kind of information should be easy to add to the wiki, though. > > Today it responded and I installed Numpy, LAPACK and refblas from there > using the Smart package manager. It works. :) Good to hear. I can update to 1.0.3 if you need it. Note that because it uses the reference blas and lapack, it will be relatively slow compared to say ATLAS or MKL. But I took quite a great care to package blas and lapack with their testers and timers, dynamically linked to blas and lapack, so that you can use them to test other implementations (say ATLAS).
