I think that's the system Python (/usr/bin/python), while the installer package works with the framework Python (/usr/local/bin/python). See: http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/faq/installing_faq.html#os-x-questions http://www.python.org/download/mac/ http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.5.4/ > i also cannot where the new version was installed. does anyone know > where the files for the new matplotlib should be? they are not in > /Library/Frameworks/Python2.5/ it seems.

The locate database is only updated weekly (and that's assuming that you keep your Mac running in the early hours in which the update is run by default). Try sudo periodic weekly to update the database if you want locate to find recently created files. The update can take quite some time. > any ideas how i can install this? i wanted to try the .egg > installation with "easy_install" but when i do: > > easy_install matplotlib > > it matches to a 0.98 version of matplotlib, not 0.99. easy_install can be really bothersome. If you have an easy-install.pth file in your site-packages directory, edit it and remove references to the old version of matplotlib. -- Jouni K.
