hi

I am running  python 2.5 and installing the matplotlib using synaptic so it is 
installing the correct version (I assume). After installing matplotlib, In the 
help(), this is what i get when asking for the modules liist:

  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site.py", line 342, in __call__
    return pydoc.help(*args, **kwds)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pydoc.py", line 1649, in __call__
    self.interact()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pydoc.py", line 1667, in interact
    self.help(request)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pydoc.py", line 1683, in help
    elif request == 'modules': self.listmodules()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pydoc.py", line 1804, in listmodules
    ModuleScanner().run(callback)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pydoc.py", line 1855, in run
    for importer, modname, ispkg in pkgutil.walk_packages():
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pkgutil.py", line 125, in walk_packages
    for item in walk_packages(path, name+'.', onerror):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/pkgutil.py", line 110, in walk_packages
    __import__(name)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/config/__init__.py", line 
5, in <module>
    from rcparams import rc
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/config/rcparams.py", line 
117, in <module>
    rcParams = rc_params()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/config/rcparams.py", line 
49, in rc_params
    fname = get_config_file()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/config/cutils.py", line 
181, in get_config_file
    path =  get_data_path() # guaranteed to exist or raise
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/config/verbose.py", line 
74, in wrapper
    ret = func(*args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/config/cutils.py", line 
129, in _get_data_path_cached
    defaultParams['datapath'][0] = _get_data_path()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/config/cutils.py", line 
125, in _get_data_path
    raise RuntimeError('Could not find the matplotlib data files')
RuntimeError: Could not find the matplotlib data files


if I try import pylab, this is what I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pylab.py", line 1, in <module>
    from matplotlib.pylab import *
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/pylab.py", line 208, in 
<module>
    from matplotlib import mpl  # pulls in most modules
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/mpl.py", line 4, in <module>
    from matplotlib import axes
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/axes.py", line 18, in 
<module>
    from matplotlib import dates as mdates
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/dates.py", line 91, in 
<module>
    from dateutil.rrule import rrule, MO, TU, WE, TH, FR, SA, SU, YEARLY, \
ImportError: No module named dateutil.rrule

I don't see this myself.  Are you running the correct Python (not 
accidentally running Python2.4, for example)?  Do you have a 
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib directory?  What is the 
exact error message when you import pylab?

Cheers,
Mike
