I just installed matplotlib-1.0.0 on my system (Snow Leopard, python 2.7),
but somehow when I try to import pyplot i get the error below.
For reference, I installed matplotlib from source. Prior to that I installed
libpng-1.4.4 and freetype-2.4.2 the usual way (./configure, make, make
install) plus I installed pkgcong as well. After getting the error I tried
the tips Friedrich R gave in this thread (
http://old.nabble.com/Symbol-not-found-td28994434.html) too, but I still get
the error.
>From a few google attempts it seems that it is an issue of dynamic vs static
linking. I can't say that I know what that is, but I'd be very interested in
knowing whether I can do anything from my side to sort things out.
Here is the error:
