Most likely, this > directory is not in pythons search path. python.org python installs into /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework and its main site-packages directory is the line listed above. That is where *all* packages get installed by default (e.g. by distutils or pip). I suspect the original poster has a conflict with another version of python or another package management system such as homebrew. You can verify which python is running using "which python" (it should be /usr/local/bin/python, which is a symlink to a binary in /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework, or the actual binary itself, depending on your $PATH. One can test matplotlib using: python -c "import matplotlib as m ; m.test(verbosity=1)" If that works then I suspect ipython is misinstalled. -- Russell ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
