Be sure to install the -dev packages for each of the above as well as python-dev. You will probably also want to install the CPU-specific versions of ATLAS, too (like atlas3-sse2). If you *really* need speed, I recommend building a more recent release of ATLAS yourself especially if you have a CPU released in the last couple of years. The 3.7 series has seen a lot of improvements over the 3.6 released in Debian. If you can live with the packaged versions of ATLAS and FFTW, then you might also be able to live with the packaged python-numpy and python-scipy. They are somewhat older than the current release, but that shouldn't be too bad. If you want to build numpy and scipy yourself and you need more specific help, please join us on scipy-user with your questions. http://www.scipy.org/Mailing_Lists -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
