Hi folks,
I've just installed MacPy 2.4.1, the latest numpy & scipy, and
mpl-0.87.2 on a colleague's Panther PowerBook. numpy & scipy
installed fine and passed all tests. For mpl, we installed
zlib from source, and initially installed Freetype2 and libpng
via the i-Installer. mpl built and installed fine, but gave
a bus error when trying to plot ("import matplotlib" would
work fine, but "import pylab" would give the error).
The .matplotlib/matplotlibrc file we're using does have TkAgg
and numpy specified, and we've verified that Tkinter is
working via a "Hello World" test script.
Suspecting one of the libraries, we then installed Freetype2
and libpng from source. We deleted all the mpl stuff in
site-packages and the mpl build directory, and built and
installed mpl again from scratch. We still get a bus error
from pylab. I am stumped as to what to try next. I've
copied verbose output below; I hope someone can offer us
some clues.
Yes, I'm also asking about this on the mpl list.
Thanks,
Tom Loredo
