Thanks for pointing to this log: "boost" is missing

numpy relies on blas/libblas so I installed it with suse's yast. 
However suse's blas seems to contain a fortran-write statement to 
stdout/unit 6/* which cannot be resolved:

hunting down blas, recompiling lapack is not that difficult, when 
lapack is all what has to to be compiled (hm I see a leading 
underscore... underscore usage in the lib usage maybe needs some 
attention as well).

I will go after boost first. Thanks.
