Hi Sameer, 

If you are using the default (system) Python, I found that the only extra 
dependency you need to install is pkg-config. I used homebrew for this 
(http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/ and "brew install pkg-config"). 
Alternatively, you can install it directly from the source obtained at 
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/pkg-config. Be sure to get the 0.25 
release at http://pkg-config.freedesktop.org/releases/pkg-config-0.25.tar.gz, 
as 0.26 has an unnecessary and expensive dependence on glib. To install, unpack 
and follow the instructions from the homebrew formula:

(mkdir -p /usr/local if needed)
./configure --disable-debug 
--with-pc-path=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/X11/lib/pkgconfig
make install

Don't worry about the libpng problem - it is fixed in matplotlib 1.1.0, which 
is available on PyPI. I can't vouch for pip, but "sudo easy_install matplotlib" 
did it for me.

Regards and please let me know how it went!
Ludwig
