I downloaded the egg for 0.98 from the matplotlib webpages, and I am trying to install it with
easy_install ./matplotlib-0.98.0-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.egg Processing matplotlib-0.98.0-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.egg removing '/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/matplotlib-0.98.0-py2.5- macosx-10.3-fat.egg' (and everything under it) creating /Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/matplotlib-0.98.0-py2.5- macosx-10.3-fat.egg Extracting matplotlib-0.98.0-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.egg to /Library/ Python/2.5/site-packages Removing matplotlib 0.91.2 from easy-install.pth file Adding matplotlib 0.98.0 to easy-install.pth file Installed /Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/matplotlib-0.98.0-py2.5- macosx-10.3-fat.egg Processing dependencies for matplotlib==0.98.0 Searching for matplotlib==0.98.0 Reading http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/matplotlib/ Reading http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/matplotlib/0.98.0 Reading http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net Reading http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/matplotlib/0.91.3 No local packages or download links found for matplotlib==0.98.0 error: Could not find suitable distribution for Requirement.parse('matplotlib==0.98.0') [skathi:~/Downloads] tgrav% Why is it trying to download the egg, when it is right there in the directory where I am running easy_install from. I do now see the point some people made on the python list about easy_install. This is an annoying behavior by the software.
