Dear Jan, With Ondrej's help, I've managed to find a workaround to this problem. Rather, let me say that this issue isn't numpy's, but more of Atlas'.
The issue you menion here happens when we link numpy against Atlas. This now causes us to depend on the BLAS provided by Atlas instead of the reference BLAS, i.e. we depend on libatlas.so.3 instead of refblas3. I tried the build with plain refblas, and Ondrej and I can confirm that this problem goes away. So, I am now patching the build system to avoid building against Atlas (which is the right way). However, this still doesn't explain why linking against Atlas causes a problem, and Ondrej and I have decided to test it out and leisure, and if necessary, file a bug against Atlas. Thanks! Kumar P.S. The Atlas in Debian is soooo old now! *sigh*. -- Kumar Appaiah, 458, Jamuna Hostel, Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai - 600 036
