Following those steps, my app started just fine on Snow Leopard. Thank you
Emanuele!
I would, however, like to understand this problem a bit more so I can fix
the build. I'd like this app to run out of the box.
Looking at ft2font.so:
otool -L Resources/lib/python2.5/matplotlib/ft2font.so
It should load /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib. The problem is that the
binary package of matplotlib for mac is linked against /usr/local/lib/
libgcc_s.1.dylib.
I tried using install_name_tool and change this on the bundle and it
does the trick.
$ cd Resources/lib/python2.5
install_name_tool

ouch -- it shouldn't be. Did you build it yourself or is that the
official one?
Also, it seems that Py2app really

Hi, Chris
I think it is the official one (0.98.5).
I didn't try the latest version but I can check if this is still true.
Could you please -- there were some bugs in linking on the OSX
binaries that were fixed
FWIW, I'm using the official 0.98.5.
Looking at the app bundle, all of the matplotlib .so files are linking
against:
@executable_path/../Frameworks/libgcc_s.1.dylib
...*except* matplotlib/backends/_macosx.so which is linking against:
/usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib
So, I didn't see any looking in

I just upgraded to 0.99.1 and it's working perfectly now. I was previously
hacking _png.so with install_name_tool, and that's not necessary anymore as
well.
Thank you to Emanuele and everyone else...much appreciated!

I'm getting my Py2app build running and think I've worked around some
issues, but another major one has come up. My application is being built on
OS X 10.5.8, where matplotlib is, oviously, installed. On another 10.5.X
machine without any of the app's dependencies, my compiled app runs just
We saw the same problem with VisTrails (www.vistrails.org).
It seems that python.org's python can't build the fonts in
~/.matplotlib on snow leopard.
We noticed that importing matplotlib.axis using Apple's python will do
that.
So this is the work-around we found for vistrails (bundled with
