Hi all, I had matplotlib-0.99.1.1 working with Python 2.6 on OS X v10.6(Snow Leopard). Today I upgraded to Lion (v10.7) and matplotlib had disappeared. Lion ships with Apple1s version of Python 2.7. Even when I look back at Python 2.6 in the /System/Library/Frameworks/Python/Version/Python2.6, it seems to be gone. OK, I thought I would install matplotlib-1.0.1 in Python 2.7 using easy_install. It failed when unable to find the headers for numpy (terminal output below). Lion comes with numpy 1.5.1 pre-installed. I tried re-installing numpy but that didn1t help so now I1m stuck. Any suggestions?

Hello William - did you manage to solve this problem without resorting to building from source?

Hi, Have you tried the EPD python installation, it works for me and includes SciPY/Numpy/ etc. http://www.enthought.com/products/epd_free.php Cheers, Joe William Carithers wrote: > > Hi all, > > I had matplotlib-0.99.1.1 working with Python 2.6 on OS X v10.6(Snow > Leopard).

It's safer to leave it alone, and it is not upgrade very often. My personal favorite option: - install python.org's python - install the official binary installers for numpy and matplotlib (both of which assume python.org's python) You can use other standard distributions of Python including: - fink - MacPorts - Enthought's python distribution most or all of these come with their own versions of numpy and matplotlib (though in the case of fink and MacPorts you have to explicitly install them). -- Russell
