"If you rename matplotlib-0.98.0-py2.5-macosx-10.3-fat.egg to matplotlib-0.98.0-py2.5.egg, easy_install will install it from the disk. I'm not sure why this happens. I've noticed lots of Mac OS X eggs with cruft at the end of the filename, which prevents their installation through easy_install. Renaming is all it takes to install them; still, it's annoying."
