Hi, I've been trying to install matplotlib .74 for a little bit and have been running into some problems. I installed python 2.4.1 from <http://undefined.org/python/> and Tcl/TkAqua 8.4.9 from <http://tcltkaqua.sf.net/>. I then compiled and installed zlib 1.2.2, libpng 1.2.8, freetype 2.1.9, Numeric 23.8, and numarray 1.2.3, in that order. Nothing seemed to go wrong at these stages.
Finally I was ready to compile/install matplotlib. It seemed to progress well. When it came time to import pylab, python exited. I've tried installing matplotlib .72-1 and the same thing happened. It also happened when I tried someone's pre-compiled version of .73. When running python -v, I saw this same error everytime, any version of matplotlib: # /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/transforms.pyc matches /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/transforms.py import matplotlib.transforms # precompiled from /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/transforms.pyc # /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/_transforms.pyc matches /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/_transforms.py import matplotlib._transforms # precompiled from /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/_transforms.pyc Illegal instruction I'd really like to make this work. Any suggestions? _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
