that's right, but now I see that that wasn't the issue anyway: > > > ImportError: > dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/ft2font.so, > > 2): Library not loaded: /usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib > > > Referenced from: > /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/ft2font.so ft2font is relying on libfreetype. I think that's the one that Apple delivers with their X11 (I know I have it, anyway), but I think X11 is an optional install, so you may not have it. Is that file there? ON my system: $ file /usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib /usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib: symbolic link to `libfreetype.6.3.dylib' and $ file /usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.3.dylib /usr/X11R6/lib/libfreetype.6.3.dylib: Mach-O dynamically linked shared library ppc so I have it, and it's a ppc lib, which makes sense, as I'm running on a ppc machine. If you don't have it, probably the easiest thing to do is install Apple's X11 -- otherwise, perhaps MPL should be built against a static libfreetype. -Chris -- Christopher Barker, Ph.D. Oceanographer Emergency Response Division NOAA/NOS/OR&R (206) 526-6959 voice 7600 Sand Point Way NE (206) 526-6329 fax Seattle, WA 98115 (206) 526-6317 main reception chris.bar...@noaa.gov ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The NEW KODAK i700 Series Scanners deliver under ANY circumstances!
