scipy installation on raspberry pi

Have tried to install scipy on wheezy and jessie with pip without success (could only install numpy with pip). However, it's easy to install with

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install python-scipy

Observe that the first time you try to install the package you might get the message

    E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?

Running the following command fixed the problem

    sudo apt-get --fix-missing

The versions installed were

• numpy 1.8.2
• scipy 0.14.0
