Re: [julia-users] Add new packages

Seems that matplotlib was not installed. Installed it using "sudo apt-get 
install python-matplotlib". Sorry for wasting your time. Hope that this 
helps other beginners at their first installation of julia. Will start 
learning julia tomarrow (hopefully ;)).

You probably don't have the Python package matplotlib installed. Please the
guide at https://github.com/stevengj/PyPlot.jl

PyPlot uses the python module "matplotlib".  You need to install that in
Python.

Something along the lines of "sudo pip install matplotlib", or "sudo
apt-get install python-matplotlib" should do the trick.

Unfortunately got another error message (see screenshot) even though PyPlot 
seems to be installed.

Could git also just be specified as a requirement in the ppa?

 Just tried your suggestion. Got another, probably similar, error
 message (see attached).

[julia-users] Add new packages

2014-10-22 Thread Markus Roth
Hey advanced julia users,

I am new to the julia programming language and just started to learn it. I 
just set up a new Linux Mint installation and installed julia by adding the 
ubuntu repository as suggested on the website. As a first step I wanted to 
install PyPlot by typing "Pkg.add("PyPlot")". I get an error message (see 
attached file). Can you help me with my problem because I am really 
interested in learning the language.

Best,
Markus
