Hi,
I changed the script to what you suggested and this is the output:
[karianneholhjem:~] karianne% python bla.py --verbose-helpful
$HOME=/Users/karianne
CONFIGDIR=/Users/karianne/.matplotlib
matplotlib data path
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/mpl-data
loaded rc file /Users/karianne/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc
matplotlib version 1.0.0
verbose.level helpful
interactive is False
units is False
platform is darwin
Bus error
I get the same output when commenting out either line 2 or 3.
(/Users/karianne/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc is just a link to
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/mpl-data/matplotlibrc
as was in my previous output.)
Regarding numpy - what you say is intersting. I couldn't find any such
problems in my google-searches. I am running version 1.2.1:
[karianneholhjem:/] karianne% python -c 'import numpy; print numpy.__version__'
1.2.1
I couldn't find the version requirements in the README file so I probably
found the wrong README
(/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/numpy/README.txt).
It did provide a way of testing numpy, I don't know if it's interesting
but here is the output:
[karianneholhjem:/] karianne% python -c 'import numpy; numpy.test()'
Running unit tests for numpy
NumPy version 1.2.1
NumPy is installed in
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.5/lib/python2.5/site-packages/numpy
Python version 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Feb 22 2008, 07:57:53) [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple
Computer, Inc. build 5363)]
nose version 0.11.3

Ran 1740 tests in 8.691s
OK (KNOWNFAIL=1)
Is there any more information I can provide to give you clues as of why
pyplot and pylab aren't working? Thank you for your help so far, I did a
course on python/numpy/matplotlib and I would really like to use
matplotlib as it is a really powerful plotting tool!
cheers,
Karianne
