I am trying to upgrade my scipy from version 0.13.3 to 0.17 (I need some new functions), I am working in Ubuntu 14.04

I have encountered the following problems: the ubuntu repo does not contain the newest version but the one I have already installe. Therefore, I have tried to install it using pip

sudo -H pip install --upgrade scipy
Collecting scipy
Using cached scipy-0.17.0.tar.gz
Building wheels for collected packages: scipy
Running setup.py bdist_wheel for scipy .../

But then the intallation procedure remains blocked here. I've looked here on the forum for solutions, Can't upgrade Scipy

https://askubuntu.com/questions/359254/how-to-install-numpy-and-scipy-for-python

But the solutions reported here did not fix my problem.

  • I've had similar difficulties in the past, and therefore started using an anaconda environment in my user's home folder. Alongside (easier) packet management, it provides other useful tools. See https://docs.continuum.io/anaconda/install – Diogo Pinto Mar 21 '16 at 16:14

    If you mean the installation is stuck (= you don't get any error message, it just sits there) --- it can just take a long time, 10-20 min is well possible depending on speed of computer – pv. Mar 21 '16 at 20:17
