Thanks. First, a note:

There is confusion here. If I have it right, the OP is trying to install 
the BINARY egg that is up on sourceforge into the MacPython/Python.org 
Python2.5 running on OS-X 10.5. This should work. However:

...

> Installed 
> /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib-0.91.2-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.egg

So this looks like it has installed the binary egg.

But now it has determined that it has mpl 0.91.2 as a dependency, which 
is just plain odd -- I really don't get setuptools!

> Processing matplotlib-0.91.2.tar.gz

so it has downloaded the tarball, and is trying to build it.

By the way I thought wxPython was only a run-time dependency now?

some freetype warnings -- should it work with Apple-supplied freetype? 
it didn't used to , but it looks like these are only warnings now.

Now we've got a problem with a fink (or is it darwinports?) libJPEG, 
'cause it's not Universal -- but why is it finding that libjpeg?

So:

1) Have you tried aborting when it starts downloading? Maybe the binary 
is installed?

2) Why is it trying to download and build from source? Does anyone get 
setuptools enough to know?

3) Maybe we should just distribute a binary *.mpkg instead. I've seen 
talk of a way to install a single binary that could work with either 
Apple's or MacPython's 2.5 -- I think it involved a symlink to a shared 
place to put packages -- anyone know if that actually works?
