Description Michael Spiegel 2007-09-26 15:22:02 UTC
Description of problem:

Installing the numpy package from the extras repository leads to the following
error when attempting to import numpy:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/numpy/__init__.py", line 43, in ?
    import linalg
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/numpy/linalg/__init__.py", line 4, in ?
    from linalg import *
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/numpy/linalg/linalg.py", line 25, in ?
    from numpy.linalg import lapack_lite
ImportError: /usr/lib/atlas/liblapack.so.3: undefined symbol: ATL_chemv


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

numpy-1.0.3-0.1.fc6.i386.rpm

Comment 1 James Antill 2007-09-26 16:06:54 UTC
 Why assign to python then?

Comment 2 Jarod Wilson 2007-09-26 17:17:04 UTC
The error there actually seems to suggest an undefined symbol in an atlas
library, not a problem with numpy. Re-reassigning... :)

Comment 3 Michael Spiegel 2007-09-26 18:38:56 UTC
Oops.  Sorry about that.  Looks like the problem has been assigned to the
correct project now.

Comment 4 Quentin Spencer 2007-09-27 16:34:48 UTC
I'm afraid I can't seem to duplicate this on F7, and I don't have a F6 system
readily available. In ipython I get no error if I enter "from numpy.linalg
import *". I currently have installed the following:

numpy-1.0.3-0.1.fc7
atlas-3.6.0-11.fc6

As far as I can tell there's nothing different in the way either numpy or atlas
are compiled between F6 and F7. I'm not really a python expert. Is there
something else I should be doing to trigger this? I also find it odd that it's
complaining about ATL_chemv in liblapack.so.3, since it appears to be defined in
/usr/lib/atlas/libblas.so.3.0 (also part of atlas-3.6.0).

Comment 6 Bug Zapper 2008-05-06 19:46:05 UTC
This bug is open for a Fedora version that is no longer maintained and
will not be fixed by Fedora. Therefore we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen thus bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
