I'm sorry, I think I might have got a bit lost in your log files.   Do
you know whether scipy compiles with _just_ ACML, or does it also need
the atlas libs?  If so, have you tried the rpm atlas libs in your
site.cfg file?  I've appended something I found in a web search, which
I could not make sense of, in case it's helpful,

Best,

Matthew

I use acml-2.5.0 and have it set up with blas-config : $ blas-config -l

Available C profiles: [1] ACML [2] ATLAS [3] threaded-ATLAS

Available F77 profiles: [1] ACML [2] ATLAS [3] threaded-ATLAS

Which gives me :

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Mar 26 10:00 /usr/lib64/libblas.so ->
/usr/lib/libacml.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Mar 26 10:00
/usr/lib64/libblas.so.0 -> /usr/lib/libacml.so

anyway, the overlays site.cfg stuff was missing my libblas, so to fix
the issue I patched it thusly:
