Removing the hardcoded paths works. I noticed two more build issues.
1) On Python 3.x I see the following errors/warnings, however the build succeeds. ``` Can't parse docstring in build\lib.win-amd64-3.2\matplotlib\artist.py line 1265: ParseError: bad token: type=55, value="'", context=('', (1265, 38)) Can't parse docstring in build\lib.win-amd64-3.2\matplotlib\axes.py line 3344: TokenError: ('EOF in multi-line statement', (2, 0)) Can't parse docstring in build\lib.win-amd64-3.2\matplotlib\axes.py line 3345: ParseError: bad input: type=5, value=' ', context=('\n\n<snip>\n\n', (3345, 0)) Can't parse docstring in build\lib.win-amd64-3.2\matplotlib\axes.py line 3346: ParseError: bad input: type=5, value=' ', context=('\n\n<snip>\n\n', (3346, 0)) Can't parse docstring in build\lib.win-amd64-3.2\matplotlib\backends\backend_agg.py line 322: TokenError: ('EOF in multi-line statement', (2, 0)) ``` 2) On Python 2.6 with distribute-0.6.45, the build fails during packaging.
