This comes up every so often, and there really should be more instructions on the website; suffice it to say, it's trying to resolve dependencies that are actually satisfied by the package yoiu downloaded (it is a "fat" binary, universal - both PPC and Intel) but distutils is being somewhat obtuse for an unknown (to me) reason.
That said, the build on the matplotlib website is self-sufficient save for numpy, use the -N flag to easy_install (and don't forget to run it with sudo). This should take care of things.
