- 2) ``sudo pip install Theano``
-
- If the packages ``libatlas3gf-base`` or ``libatlas-dev`` are already installed, there will be problems as they conflict with ``libopenblas-dev``.
- If you see NumPy errors, the simplest is to remove ``libopenblas-dev`` and its dependency ``libopenblas-base`` like this: ``sudo apt-get remove libopenblas-base``.
- The ideal would be that you remove ``libatlas3gf-base`` and ``libatlas-dev``,
- but you will need to reinstall python-numpy, python-scipy and all other packages that used it.
- OpenBLAS is faster then ATLAS most of the time and it allows to control the number of threads used during the execution.

 The openblas included in Ubuntu is limited to 2 threads. If you want
 to use more cores at the same time, you will need to compile it
 yourself. Here is some code that will help you.
