I just tried to install basemap 0.9.8 but when I run simpletest.py from the examples directory I get:
File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/toolkits/basemap/basemap.py", line 31, in <module> import _geos, pupynere ImportError: libgeos_c.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I had installed the geos stuff to /usr/local following the instructions in the basemap README, and with export GEOS_DIR=/usr/local) and the above file seemed to install fine - it is found in my /usr/local/lib directory. I've tried running python with and without another explicit export GEOS_DIR statement. Same problem both ways. I'm running matplotlib 0.90.1 from Ubuntu Gutsy.
