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: > Processing matplotlib-0.91.2-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.egg ... > 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. > Processing dependencies for matplotlib==0.91.2 > Searching for matplotlib==0.91.2 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. > wxPython: no > * wxPython not found By the way I thought wxPython was only a run-time dependency now? > In file included from /usr/X11/include/freetype2/freetype/freetype.h:41, some freetype warnings -- should it work with Apple-supplied freetype? it didn't used to , but it looks like these are only warnings now. > ld: in /sw/lib/libJPEG.dylib, file is not of required architecture for > architecture ppc 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? -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
