When I upgraded from Ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10 it broke my Numpy install (mighty 
irritating). I haven't looked in detail, but It seems as if some of the 
packages related to ATLAS have been renamed and the post-upgrade "cleanup" 
removed the development packages as it considered them obsolete.

I made sure that libatlas-base-dev and libatlas-sse2-dev (this machine supports 
sse2) were installed and was able to rebuild and install Numpy with no 
problems. I do not have an ATLAS environment variable.

Cheers,
Scott
