That's right. I think libpng and libfreetype are the ones required at this point. > The current matplotlib package expects libpng in > /usr/local/lib. is it dependent on the freetype in Apple's X11? I have a build installed that is, though I'm not totally sure where I got it. Didn't Russell Owen point you to directions? Here they are again: http://www.astro.washington.edu/rowen/BuildingMatplotlibForMac.html The only problem with those is that it required deleting the dylib, but if you have other apps that depend on it, you won't want to do that. At some point, I has set up my system with a "StaticLibs Dir" in the MPL source, and edited the setup.py to find stuff there. Should I dig this up and contribute it? -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
