Sometime in October, Christopher Barker proposed the following: | the installation package for OS-X is for the python.org build -- from | the above, I can see you are running Apple's python, which came with a | version of numpy. | | I don't remember how you installed matplotlib, but in general, most | extrenal packages are built for the python or python, so what I wold do is: | | download and install python 2.5.2 from python.org (2.6 is brand new, and | not yet well supported by external packages) | | re-install numpy 1.2.0 (may not be necessary, but it won't hurt) | | re-install MPL. | | you can tell what python you are running by typing "python" n the | command line -- it should be 2.5.2 if it's the python.org one. If that's | not what you get, you may need to edit your .bash_profile file to add it | to your PATH. |
Thanks Chris, This worked great. Along with the above mentioned stuff, I also had a bit of trouble installing the MPL egg which seems to be mac specific. This was also pretty useful in fixing that: http://www.nabble.com/OS-X-(Intel-Mac)-installation-woes-td19011120.html The important part being: That said, the build on the matplotlib website is self-sufficient save for numpy, use the -N flag to easy_install (and don't forget to run it with sudo). This should take care of things. -- John M Harrold _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
