I was able to install from the .egg file. I'm still getting the same
error when attempting to import though. Namely:
>>>from pylab import *
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File
"/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplot

Okay, I tried the .zip installer and get the following error when trying
to import:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in

"/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pylab.py",

I haven't tried the binaries because there isn't one for python 2.5 and
Mac OS 10.4 (the particular combination that I have). I could use the
binaries if I went back to python 2.4, but I'm trying avoid that if
possible.

Building matplotlib requires linking against libpng and freetype. The
error you posted is just saying that libpng can't be found. Building
matplotlib correctly on osx and windows isn't for the feint of heart.
Have you tried the pre-built osx binaries available for download on
sourceforge?

I'm in the process of migrating from Windows to Mac OS X and doing my
first round of installations from source code in the process. In trying
to install matplotlib I get the following error:
/usr/bin/ld: for architecture i386
/usr/bin/ld: can't locate file for: -lpng
collect2: ld returned 1 exi
