fail to build atlas in i7 mac

[high07@…]

To set up py26-nltk, I was trying to setup atlas as it is a dependency for nltk.

However, it constantly fails, although I tried most things suggested by related thread. I am not sure what should I do for this. any help will be greatly appreciated.

You should try to compile with gcc45 instead of gcc44. It would not even surprise me if, for these newest model, gcc46 is not required.
