matplotlib-0.87.6 works fine on AIX 5.1, with gcc 3.2.2 and python 2.5 . I've not compiled it with GTK or TK support but the Agg backend works.
Would it be possible for a developer to modify the code to include AIX in the supported OS list? I always have change this structure in setupext.py manually: basedir = { 'win32' : ['win32_static',], 'linux2' : ['/usr/local', '/usr',], 'linux' : ['/usr/local', '/usr',], 'cygwin' : ['/usr/local', '/usr',], 'darwin' : ['/sw/lib/freetype2', '/sw/lib/freetype219', '/usr/local', '/usr', '/sw'], 'freebsd4' : ['/usr/local', '/usr'], 'freebsd5' : ['/usr/local', '/usr'], 'freebsd6' : ['/usr/local', '/usr'], 'sunos5' : [os.getenv('MPLIB_BASE') or '/usr/local',], 'gnukfreebsd5' : ['/usr/local', '/usr'], 'gnukfreebsd6' : ['/usr/local', '/usr'], } To add the entry: 'aix5' : [/usr/local], Thanks for making this wonderful library available!
