Matplotlib’s array of interchangeable backends model is fairly ambiguous to PyInstaller — particularly if you want more than one backend. Telling PyInstaller which backends you want <https://pyinstaller.org/en/v6.10.0/hooks-config.html#matplotlib-hooks> straightens it out. # In your spec file a = Analysis( ... hooksconfig={ "matplotlib": { "backends": ["TkAgg", "pdf"], } }, ... )
That said, just adding a dumb --hiddenimport=matplotlib.backends.backend_pdf to the build command does the trick for me too. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "PyInstaller" group.
