<p dir="auto">FAILED (KNOWNFAIL=15, SKIP=43, errors=1, failures=69)<br>
Tested scipy using the nose package. 69 failures is quite a lot.</p>

<p dir="auto">Dear developers,</p>
<p dir="auto">I installed the development version (the latest would not compile due to VecLib) of SciPy from source:</p>
<p dir="auto">$ git clone <a href="https://github.com/scipy/scipy.git">https://github.com/scipy/scipy.git</a></p>
<p dir="auto">$ git show<br>

<p dir="auto">So far, so good. But, when I tried to run the unit tests (I verified this is the only scipy installation on my computer), I get many unit test failures:</p>
<p dir="auto">$ python -c "import scipy; scipy.test('full')"<br>
[see attachment]</p>
<p dir="auto">Most seem to be related to arpack. I am really uncomfortable using this scipy installation, and feel that if building succeeds, the unit tests should run without failures. Is there any remedy?</p>
<p dir="auto">I have attached my environment (both homebrew installed packages and the build environment as well).</p>
