libimf is part of intel compiler. Try adding proper paths to you
LD_LIBRARY_PATH by doing one of the following prior to running ipython:

 1) load intel module
 2) source intel "activation" script by:
    source <INTEL_DIR>/bin/compilervars.sh intel64
 3) append proper path manually:
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:<INTEL_DIR>/lib/intel64

Alternative (preferred one) is to use yt's installation script. It will
compile python2.7 for you. As a result you won't need to rely on system
one that introduces intel compiler as a direct dependency.
Cheers,
Kacper
