Hi everyone,

Sorry if this is a redundant request, but I haven't been able to find any
reliable sources online. I'm trying to install matplotlib on my mac with
osx 10.7.5. I get the following error:

I've tried symbolic linking freetype-related files in /usr/local (as seen
here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4092994/unable-to-install-matplotlib-on-mac-os-x).
I've also confirmed that freetype-related files are in my PATH environment
variable. Could anyone point me in the right direction for installing the
package?

Many thanks,

Maggie
