matplotlib does not work on 64bit fink. I need to set the distribution
correctly. Apple does not support Carbon on 64bit mac environments.

Visibly, this is not an error with Fink's matplotlib, but with another version
installed in /usr/local/scisoft.
Without more information from you, one can only guess why you are using this
and
not Fink's version. Supposing that your Fink matplotlib package is installed
correctly, you are probably running the wrong python, not /sw/bin/python, but
something in /usr/local. This could be a PATH problem, or that you run "python"
instead of, for instance, "python2.6", but you haven't installed Fink's
"python"
package.
