Issue with installing Scipy in virtualenv on RaspBerryPI

Question

when i run: pip install -v scipy in the virtualenv of RPI, RPI freezes halfway through installation and i had to power off and on RPI to turn it on again. I tried upgrading pip but the problem persisted and I can't seem to find out the reason why. Please help, thank you.

Answer 1

At first, check the power supply and a CPU heatsink. My RPi was stuck very often during different long-term tasks, after I installed heastsink problem was gone.
