I have installed Ubuntu 8.10. I am using python 2.6.4. I want to install the following package along with its dependencies.
scipy 0.7.1
I am getting some error related to ATLAS. How do I install ATLAS?
What processor? You probably want libatlas-sse2-dev from the universe repositories if you have a processor that can use sse2 instructions. There is also libatlas-sse-dev if you can do sse but not sse2. I recommend enabling universe and then searching for the various versions of libatlas. cat /proc/cpuinfo will tell you what sort of acceleration your processor provides (under the flags section).
