+It is highly recommended to install libraries implementing BLAS and
+LAPACK before installing numpy. You may choose between:
a) BLAS and LAPACK (reference but unoptimized and thus slow)
b) OpenBLAS (optimized, provides LAPACK too)
c) ATLAS and LAPACK (optimized), good to read README.ATLAS
All these are available on SlackBuilds.org.
