matplotlib-devel Mailing List for matplotlib

Hey all -
I'm having some trouble building and installing matplotlib on my 
Macbook Pro running OS X 10.5.4.
I don't understand exactly what the errors are trying to tell me...any 
help is much appreciated!

I replaced the ipython shell magic_run functionality with the basic
code.InteractiveConsole.runsource function. This works fine -- we may
lose some of ipython's nice traceback functionality so if we want we
can have a switch that uses ipython if available and falls back on the
default code module, but for now I have simply removed the ipython
dependency.
For some reason runsource prints the intro docstring to the console
from files passed to runsource -- not sure how suppress this but it is
a minor nuisance.
