Many apologises for the slow response ... I'm quite convinced the path is not an issue.

I think usually the matplotlib binaries are linked against the same libraries as the Python binaries to avoid such trouble, but for the 10.6 issue this went wrong somehow? I don't know. A possibility would be to compile Python and matplotlib yourself. This can, for matplotlib, be somewhat troublesome. There is a recommended way via the make.osx script, and "my" way via tweaking of the config files. The recommended way downloads freetype2 etc. into a local directory and does afaik hard linking, "my" way links it the usual dynamic way against system-wide installed libraries. The make.osx way is way from perfect, but it should work, albeit I personally like the other way much more, since it appears much more clean to me. Tell me what you prefer. If you prefer "my" way, I will give you detailed instructions, with the make.osx way I'm neither comfortable nor acquainted, maybe John can help you then. There's also a recent thread about building matplotlib on Mac (10.6 if I'm not mistaken) with make.osx.
