I'm guessing that you are installing on a system that includes pygtk-2.4 (RHEL?). If that is the case, it is probably a bug in pygtk, see http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/faq.html#PYGTK24
If this is not the case, please post again with more information concerning os and version, etc. Darren On Monday 22 January 2007 18:05, Peter J.
