Hi,

In the README.txt of the numpy installation it says that one could use a 
site.cfg file to 
specify non-standard locations of ATLAS en LAPACK libraries, but it doesn't 
explain how. 

I have a directory software/atlas3.6.0/lib/Linux_PPROSSE2/ which contains
libcombinedlapack.a  libatlas.a     libcblas.a     libf77blas.a   liblapack.a   
 libtstatlas.a
where liblapack.a are the few lapack routines provided by ATLAS, and 
libcombinedlapack.a
(> 5 MB) contains the full LAPACK library including the few optimized routines 
of ATLAS.

>From the example in numpy/distutils/system_info.py I figured that my site.cfg 
>file should
look like

--- site.cfg ---
[atlas]
library_dirs = /software/atlas3.6.0/lib/Linux_PPROSSE2/
atlas_libs = combinedlapack, f77blas, cblas, atlas
---------------

However, during numpy installation, he says:

FOUND:
    libraries = ['combinedlapack', 'f77blas', 'cblas', 'atlas']
    library_dirs = ['/software/atlas3.6.0/lib/Linux_PPROSSE2/']

which is good, but afterwards he also says:

 Lapack library (from ATLAS) is probably incomplete:
    size of /software/atlas3.6.0/lib/Linux_PPROSSE2/liblapack.a is 305k 
(expected >4000k)

which he shouldn't use at all. Strangely enough, renaming libcombinedlapack.a 
to liblapack.a
and adapting the site.cfg file accordingly still gives the same message.

Any pointers?
