'Segmentation fault (core dumped) while building SciPy from source
I tried building the SciPy library from source on my Linux machine by following the steps mentioned in this tutorial.
In the 13th step, when trying to test the build using
python3 runtests.py -v, a segmentation fault is thrown.
I'm using a conda virtual environment called scipydev

Segmentation fault (core dumped)
I suspect the LAPACK or BLAS libraries might be causing this but I'm not really sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
