Question
Cannot install Scipy
Hi, I am currently unable to install Scipy in my virtualenv. I have tried building via pip, wheels (as per the stack overflow suggestion), and the default package manager, but none of them have worked. My error message is as follows:
c++: internal compiler error: Killed (program cc1plus)
error: Command "c++ -pthread -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -g -fwrapv -O2 -Wall -fPIC -D__STDC_FORMAT_MACROS=1 -I/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/numpy/core/include -I/usr/include/python2.7 -c scipy/sparse/sparsetools/csr_wrap.cxx -o build/temp.linux-x86_64-2.7/scipy/sparse/sparsetools/csr_wrap.o" failed with exit status 4
I have the latest version of gcc as well as all of the scipy dependencies, so I am not sure what is causing this problem.

Propably memory issues,
you can try increasing memory using swap file.

Worked with 2GB swap for me, might work with smaller swap file as well.
