I am running lasagne/nolearn, which uses theano.
It has been particularly difficult to install and compile theano. The following compilation error happens after installing a 64 bit g++ compiler.
Help is much appreciated. Thanks!
Problem occurred during compilation with the command line below:

I found what the problem was and would like to post the solution. This particular problem was caused because the file libpythonxx.a file was missing in the same directory where you find the pythonxx.dll file (in my case python27.dll and thus I created the libpython27.a file.
A noble soul posted all steps necessary to install theano at http://rosinality.ncity.net/doku.php?id=python:installing_theano (in Korean and English). To generate such file, you copy the pythonxx.dll file to a temporary directory and type the following commands in the windows console:
gendef pythonXX.dll
dlltool --as-flags=--64 -m i386:x86-64 -k --output-lib libpythonXX.a --input-def pythonXX.def
Then you paste the generated libpythonxx.a file in the same directory as the pythonxx.dll file.
In windows, you usually find this file under C:\Windows\System3 but if you are using anaconda as I am, you will find it under?
C:\Users\xxxxx\Anaconda\libs, xxxxx being your user.
