Re: [matplotlib-devel] Backend for Pyside

[Peter Butterworth]

Wouldn't it be possible to use a single backend compatible with both
PyQt and Pyside ?

Other projects (enthought, ipython, spyderlib) seem to be able to
handle the issue by importing from a proxy qt module that does the
right imports and handles the incompatibilities. The preferred backend
is set through an environment variable.

I've just noticed that its possible to use an external package as a
back end so I moved my changes into their own package.  This is
sufficient for my own use but I'm guessing others may find is useful
as well (and it might speed official support).

Attached is the package. (pysidempl)

Gerald.

[matplotlib-devel] Installing GTK and matplotlib on OSX

[Ian Bell]

I have been able to get pygtk installed on OSX by following these
instructions, and it works fine:
http://kedeligdata.blogspot.com/2011/03/building-pygtk-for-mac.html

I would really like to get GTK working on OSX since I have done some app
development using GTK and Glade, and I can get GTK and Glade working without
problems on both Windows and Linux machines.  OSX is the thorn in my side at
the moment.

FYI: In make.osx, the path for the libpng install is no longer any good, the
correct full path should be
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libpng/files/libpng12/1.2.44/libpng-1.2.44.tar.gz/download
The linpng folks seem to have relocated their installation files on the
sourceforge server.

When altering the paths for GTK, what modifications are required?  How can I
help the matplotlib install find the GTK files?

Regards,
Ian
