[oe] python-numpy cannot find libraries

[Bob Cvengros]

Hi,

I am having a problem compiling python-numpy similar to that posted
here<http://lists.linuxtogo.org/pipermail/openembedded-devel/2011-April/031840.html>,
however this issue does not appear to have been resolved.

The cross compiler cannot find the correct libraries and seems to be looking
for the libraries on my host machine path rather than the libraries created
for my ARM device. Specifically, I find the following in the resultant
log.do_compile.4120 file:


----------------------------------------------------
$ bitbake -f -c compile python-numpy

......

Running from numpy source directory.

....and so on
------------------------------------------------------

do_compile eventually throws an error because it cannot recognize the ATLAS
code, but I have traced it back to not being able to find the libraries
listed. Given the provided link, this problem is not unique to my situation.
I wish I could fix it, but my technical skills are not up to the task. I
could use some help resolving the issue.

Thanks,
