Hi Lisa,
I had lots of trouble installing on 10.6 as well. What finally worked for me
is to use the (recommended) file make.osx that comes with the matplotlib
download. You have to edit that file to point to the versions of Python (you
want 2.6) and OSX (you want 10.6). I'm attaching a version

You're right--that's pretty simple. I ran that exact code and it worked
fine.
Don't know what to say except that this is above my competence level to dig
into the guts of tk. Looks like a problem for John Hunter.
Sorry I couldn't help more,

I would like to fit a gaussian to a histogram and then overplot it. I can
write the code to do this but most plotting packages support such fitting.
However I can't find it for pyplot even after scanning documentation,
googling, etc. In fact, the only fitting functionality I could find was the
for the
truncated distribution, then I will underestimate the sigma parameter of
the gaussian needed to get a good fit.
I'll take at the scipy.stats.norm . Thanks for your help.

Hello Mitra,
If you haven't solved your problem yet, I would highly recommend cleaning up
previous versions and using the make.osx file supplied with the matplotlib
download. Edit the PREFIX to replace the example target directory with your
own target directory.

Ok, after a little more digging I'm really confused. Libfreetype.6.dylib is
actually an OS X alias to libfreetype.6.3.2.dylib. Not sure why the error
report gave the path to the alias rather than the target file.

I've not been able to find a successful way to install matplotlib since
upgrading to OS 10.6. There doesn't seem to be an egg for it. Easy_install
matplotlib finds an old version (0.91) that is not compatible with the new
numpy supplied by Apple. Easy_install matplotlib-0.99.1 can't find it.
