Hi,
I installed the libfreetype6-dev package and than re-started the upgrade
process with sudo pip3 install matplotlib --upgrade, which took a while but
finally was successful.It seems to be all right now.
Thanks for the hint with freetype. That helped a lot.
cheers,
Christian --

Yeah, that mirrors what others have stated. The common thread seems to be that
all of these users were comfortable with doing "sudo pip install <somepkg>"
(myself included). I was in a rush when I originally encountered issues back in
the summer on my 12.04 machine, so I just switched to miniconda and didn't
figure out what was wrong on my system.

Hi,
as you can see: 14.3.1 which is the latest, because before I started upgrading,
I read about possible issues here and upgraded the setuptools as conclusion.
Python 3.4.0 (default, Apr 11 2014, 13:05:11)
[GCC 4.8.2] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import setuptools
>>> print(setuptools.__version__)
14.3.1
>>> exit() cheers,Christian

I think we have seen this issue before and it seems to be caused by an out of
date version of setuptools. I tried reproducing it on fresh ubuntu 14.04
machine but was not able to reproduce the issue. Do you know which version of
setuptools you are using?

Make sure you have `freetype-dev` installed at the system level.

I'm running Linux Mint 17 "Quina" which is based on Ubuntu's trusty packges.
pip3 is up to date. Running
print(setuptools.__file__)
gives: /usr/local/lib/python3.4/dist-packages/setuptools/__init__.py which is
as expected.
Using pip3 install matplotlib --upgrade #even to 1.4.3get's me this:

----------------------------------------
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in
/tmp/pip-build-sezmzam8/matplotlib
Which leads to the same error!
running python2.7 setup.py egg_info doesn't fail but since I have to use 3.4.x
ant pyqt5.4.x there is no way to use something else than matplotlib
1.4.3/1.5dev1 because auf the qt5agg backend.
Any hints on how to get along?
