compile problems on MacBook Pro

Thanks. I commented out the lines you suggested and MPL compiles and runs. I haven't done extensive testing, but I am able to generate simple plots.

I had the same problem, and solved it by deleting the lines in the
arrayobject header file that (re)defined uint and ushort. MPL
compiles fine after this change. I think this is an issue with
changing numpy, and not with the Intel Mac in general.

Has anybody else run into this issue?

Hi,

  I'm trying to install matplotlib on my MacBook Pro. I installed
python 2.4.3 using the Universal-MacPython-2.4.3.dmg installer and
then installed NumPy 0.9.6 from source. I have libfreetype and
libpng in /usr/local/lib, probably from my LaTeX install (using
MacTeX-20060314.dmg from www.ctan.org).

  Below are the errors I get when I run python setup.py build for
matplotlib. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Kimo
