[Matplotlib-users] installing matplotlib 1.3.0
Hello everyone, I have a small problem installing the latest release of matplotlib.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] installing matplotlib on mac os X with the *.dmg file
Thank you for the information Paul and Felix.
I have followed your advice and installed a package manager, pip. However,
running:
sudo pip install matplotlib
did not work. Instead, the key was:
sudo pip install git+
https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib.git#egg=matplotlib-dev
worked well, although I'm not sure why.
For archival purposes, I have pasted my notes below for installing python /
matplotlib on mac os x.
Thanks again,
Tim
First had to install homebrew (http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/), ran brew
doctor and fixed the appropriate warning messages. Had to add export
PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH under ~/.bash_profile. Also had to install Xcode
from app store, and download Developer Tools under Settings--Downloads.
brew doctor
brew update
Then ran brew install python, but this didnt work. So i installed
gfortran instead:
brew install gfortran
then installed python from python.org. Because I changed the path in the
.bash_profile, this version of python was first when I called python.
(which python should yield /usr/local/bin/python, and python --version
should give 2.7.2)
i also used homebrew to install pip, a python module manager, and
gfortran:
brew install pip
brew install gfortran
with pip, you can install PIL, scipy, (and nump):
sudo pip install pil
sudo pip install scipy
sudo pip install numpy
(but be sure you have gfortran before these)
to get matplotlib, instead of:
sudo pip install matplotlib
do:
sudo pip install git+
https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib.git#egg=matplotlib-dev
this will make ipython --pylab work correctly
Also: I had to install the 32 bit version of python-- not sure if 64/32 bit
works... Doesn't matter which version you
downloadhttp://www.python.org/download/
To remove python (from here http://docs.python.org/using/mac.html),
1. remove /Applications/Python 2.x
2. remove the framework folder: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework
3. you can remove the symbolic link too,...

The dmg you are referring to appears to install to

Path is a list of all paths which are searched for installed modules. If
my suspicion is correct, the directory where you installed matplotlib is
not in the list. You can just add it
path.append('/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages')
and then import matplotlib. However, you have add it to your path again
every time you start a new session. To add it permanently, put an otherwise
empty text file which includes the path and place it in one of the
directories that are already on the search path. You have add a .pth suffix
to this text file when you save it.

ps: There are many ways to install python and packages and all are more
complicated to what you are used to from the mac - welcome to the world of

macports (slow, but reliable) as well as distribute and pip. I recommend
macports which creates a new installation for everything you want / need in

qtconsole and the notebook which cannot be done using pure python package
managers.

I got an error related to _tkinter not being found (even though it is installed). I looked all over the forums for this error, and it seems that the only solution is to edit the setup.py file and recompile matplotlib. However, because I installed from a binary, I cannot do this. So I attempted to install from source: Can you give more details on the _tkinter error, is it matplotlib specific, or does it mean the Python _tkinter if such one exists at all? It's kinda strange. 5) I downloaded matplotlib-1.0.0.tar.gz and untarred it. Then I ran: 'make' (which supposedly takes care of finding out where all the Mac stuff is located) and For Python packages, ``make`` is *usually* not used. Indeed, matplotlib is an exception here (see below). 'python setup.py build', the default command for building Python modules. Now I get a ton of errors, the first one being: freetype2: found, but unknown version (no pkg-config) * WARNING: Could not find 'freetype2' headers in any * of '.', './freetype2'. You got it. If you have freetype2 and libpng installed on your system, just have a look at setupext.py, and add the installation root path (most likely '/usr/local') to the 'darwin' section. It is left out because of problems on 10.4, but on your 10.4 system it should work. It's the most easy solution if. If you don't have freetype2 installed / libpng, and you really want to compile from source (if we cannot sort out the _tkinter thingy), then there are two ways: Hard-core installation by compiling them yourself, or assisted by make.osx. I personally cannot give you advice with the more easy make.osx way, but be aware of that also this compiles and installs the libs. For the hard-core way you might find my docs on that useful (it's intended for 10.6, so feedback from 10.4 users is welcome): http://vincentdavis.info/Shared/Docs/matplotlib-installation/build/html/. Vincent is hosting that site, gratefully acknowledged. As a third try, I attempted to install using easy_install, a tool for installing Python modules: 6) I ran 'easy_install matplotlib'.

It was not only that I found it difficult to install matplotlib, but many other things were hard and difficult to understand... if you want to go *your* way and not apple's way. For instance encryption... take this as an example http://www.aei.mpg.de/~pau/Encrypt_Users.html In any case, again, yo have all of my respect and I thank you for helping me out when I had the macbook pro with your effort by porting all of that software.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Installing matplotlib on MacOS X 10.6.4
2010/9/10 Yannis Haralambous yannis.haralamb...@telecom-bretagne.eu: when I launch the DMG installer matplotlib-1.0.0-python.org-py2.6-macosx10.4.mpkg I get an error message, that my volume does not contain System Python 2.6. I'm running a standard MacOS X 10.6.4 with python 2.6.1 running from /usr/bin And I do have Python 2.6 installed in /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6 Why does the installer doesn't sees it? Several possible reasons: 1) You installed Python from source. In this case, since the mpl installer checks using the Apple package system (yes, there is actually a package system on Mac!), and installing from source of course does not register with this, the installer wouldn't be able to find the Python package. 2) There is a mistake in the matplotlib installer. This happened before already. 3) You're not running Python from the python.org installer, but rather Python from Apple. 4) I noticed that you're using the macosx10.4 installer, but you said you're on 10.6? Libraries on 10.6 are built with gcc-4.2, and the libs from the 10.4 bundle are built certainly with gcc-4.0. In this case it cannot load the gcc-4.2 built libraries. You can try to search the /matplotlib/ threads for this, we had several threads on this before. I remember no issue atm on this list about this not solved. But I may overestimate. You can also keep asking. Btw, where does your freetype2 come from? How did your build find it (i.e., do you have pkg-config or not)?

[Matplotlib-users] Installing matplotlib with Mac OS 10.6
Hello. I am finding it very difficult to install matplotlib with snow leopard. I have the Apple XCODE installed along with numpy (which I have tested and works) and am running the python 2.6 version that comes with the Mac. I have run into the following problems: 1) The diskimage installation: When I open the installer, I am told that I can not install matplotlib on my disk because I do not have a system version of python 2.6. I do not understand this error since I am running the default version (which is 2.6.1). 2) As another person on the list pointed out, easy_install matplotlib tries to install an older version that does not work with the newer version of numpy. 3) I downloaded the matplotlib-0.99.1.1-py2.6 egg. I was able to install matplotlib, seemingly. When I import pylab into python, I do not get any errors. However, I do get an error when I try to plot. With the default backend TkAgg (version 8.5), I get the following error when I try to plot: _tkinter.TclError: integer value too large to represent When I try to change the backend to MacOSX, a window opens labeled Figure 1, but nothing plots. With the verbose level on helpful, I find only that backend MacOSX version unknown. Has anyone seen any of these problems before and have an idea as to how to fix this? If not, is there another method that I should try (I'm hesitant to try to build/install from the source).

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Installing matplotlib with Mac OS 10.6
Hi Lisa, I had lots of trouble installing on 10.6 as well. What finally worked for me is to use the (recommended) file make.osx that comes with the matplotlib download. You have to edit that file to point to the versions of Python (you want 2.6) and OSX (you want 10.6). I'm attaching a version that has all these edits already made. (I'm assuming you have an intel Mac, not a ppc). Look at the top of the file and you will see an example command line that begins with PREFIX. You'll execute that command line with the example directory changed to your directory and I highly recommend choosing the directory /Users/(whatever your user name is)/.local All the libraries will be installed there and Python will know how to find them even without explicitly putting them in any PATH variable. This command line will even check for required dependencies like freetype2, pnglib, ... And will go them and install them for you if you don't already have them. The command line should look like: sudo PREFIX=/Users/(your username)/.local make -f make.osx fetch deps mpl_install Good luck, Bill On 12/2/09 12:31 PM, Lisa M Winter lisa.win...@colorado.edu wrote: Hello.

People have their reasons for doing it other ways, but package distributors can only support so much, so the python.org way is the one generally supported. You can build MPL for your install it you want, it should be easy, except for the dependencies -- I'm not sure what those are anymore, but a little reading of the docs should tell you. Oh, and you'll end up having to build every other extension, too - wxPython, QT, PIL, ???

Hi, sorry to bother you. This may be a trivial question for experienced Matplotlib users. I am trying to install Matplotlib under Windows XP but with no success.

Or do I need to download freetype2 source and compile that. If so, maybe there is a detailed (step-by-step) guide installing the dependecies (libpng, zlib, freetype), because they don't seem to have windows installers like numpy has that actually works with matplotlib.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Installing matplotlib for Python 2.6 on windows
As I mentioned in a previous email last night, I have built an installer for matplotlib (updated this afternoon) off the SVN trunk. You are welcome to use it, however be aware that maplotlib does not support Python 2.6 (and won't until after Numpy officially supports Python 2.6) and there are some known issues - one of which is that I can't get Tkinter to work properly when using plot.show(). As a work around I strongly suggest installing WxPython and using that as the default backend. If you do chose to use this installer please know that it is unsupported and you are on your own if something breaks. http://code.patricktmarsh.com/builds -Patrick On Tue, Feb 24, 2009 at 7:22 PM, Philip Bloom pbl...@crystald.com wrote: What is the recommended way to install matplotlib for python 2.6?

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Installing Matplotlib
Compiling some packages as fat binaries is a bit tricky. For some reason the double arch flag is messing it up. Are you set up using gcc 3.x or 4.x? If I recall correctly there has been some discussion of problems building matplotlib on the pythonmac-sig list, you might want to try looking in the archives over there. For that matter, is there a reason you don't want to use the binary on sourceforge? The python 2.5 version that's posted for 0.98.1 is dual architecture.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Installing Matplotlib
Hi, While others have mentioned the dual architecture problem, I'm going to completely divert your question and just point you to these two install notes for os x ... I think the last time I compiled matplotlib from source, I followed this .. it worked quite flawlessly on my MBP: http://ipython.scipy.org/moin/Py4Science/InstallationOSX Hopefully that will get you up and running, but if creating a universal binary is important to you, you can try looking here: http://ipython.scipy.org/moin/MatplotlibOSXBuildNotes HTH, -steve On Jul 27, 2008, at 7:44 PM, Ari Ehrmann wrote: Hey all, I've been having a lot of trouble installing matplotlib.

Re: [Matplotlib-users] Installing Matplotlib
are you sure you need to specify -arch i386 -arch ppc and not only -arch ppc ?? It seems that according to the log mentioning i386 here does not please the linker.
