Dear Dominique,

Thanks for your reply.  I have my atlas libraries installed in $HOME/bin/lib
where the libraries, libf77blas.a, libcblas.a, libatlas.a are present.

My .bashrc contains :
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$HOME/bin/lib:$HOME/bin/lib/ATLAS/

I have modified the following lines in the setup.py of pysparse,

library_dirs_list= ['','/home/viswanath/bin/lib/ATLAS','/usr/lib']
libraries_list = ['atlas','lapack', 'blas']
superlu_defs = [('USE_VENDOR_BLAS',1)],('USE_VENDOR_ATLAS',1)]
umfpack_defs = [('DINT', 1), ('CBLAS', 1), ('ATLAS',1)] # with atlas c-blas
(http://math-atlas.sf.net)

else:
    umfpack_include_dirs = ['/home/viswanath/bin/lib/ATLAS','amd',
'umfpack']
    umfpack_library_dirs = ['','/home/viswanath/bin/lib/ATLAS']
    umfpack_libraries = ['atlas', 'cblas', 'm']

Thanks
Best regards
Viswanath.
