setupext.py was indeed not reading the macosx build information from setup.cfg. I've put a patch here:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=560722&aid=2818964&group_id=80706 (patch number 2818964). The error you're seeing is described in this technical note from Apple: http://developer.apple.com/qa/qa2007/qa1567.html One thing that changed between 0.98.5.3 and the current SVN version is that we're now using matplotlib's path cleanup code, which is in C++. Maybe the linker is picking up different libraries with C++? Though I haven't seen this error on Mac OS X 10.4 or 10.5. --Michiel. --- On Thu, 7/9/09, Robin <robi...@gmail.com> wrote: > From: Robin <robi...@gmail.com> > Subject: [Matplotlib-users] current svn fails to build on mac > To: matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Date: Thursday, July 9, 2009, 6:11 AM > Hi, > > Just to let folks know the current SVN version fails to > build on a > mac.
