Can someone explain why I was able to have matplotlib 0.99 installed previously, and can easily have 0.98 installed through Synaptic/Ubuntu repositories, and yet have to hunt down the additional dependencies myself if I install from svn? I can't recall if I installed 0.99 through a third party repository or how I got it, but the point is: is the svn version going to be different than what one gets through a repository? Is this need to install dependencies usually the case when installing from svn?--and if so, can I suggest that this be mentioned in the online documentation? (perhaps it is and I didn't see it?). > And yes, distributing a packaged Python application which uses > Matplotlib (either for Linux or Windows) is *not* an easy and simple > matter. But with patience, it is possible. On Windows I've found it is close to easy once you know to include the matplotlib data files in your py2exe script (also, using GUI2Exe helps with this a great deal). What are the (basic) steps for doing this on Linux? I was thinking of using cx_freeze or something to package everything up on Linux.
