I recently tried to build/install matplotlib 0.87.7 on an Intel iMac running Mac OS X 10.4.8 via Fink. Although the installation succeeded, any attempts to import pylab or other modules from matplotlib result in a segfault. Tracing python2.4 while attempting to run a script that imports pylab indicates that the crash occurs shortly after it attempts to open and read data from some font file.
Here are the versions I am using: matplotlib-py24-0.87.7-1 python24-2.4.3-1001 scipy-core-py24-1.0-4 I am also using Apple's X11 1.1.2 / Xfree86 4.4.0. Has anyone had any success using the above Fink packages? L.G. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
