I found a web page in which someone has done the horrible task of figuring out how the hell you compile in Cygwin. Details below:
http://innuendopoly.org/arch/matplotlib-cygwin
In short, the Cygwin compile runs into TONS of errors as is, and it seems the matplotlib developers aren’t really supporting it. Trying their techniques to see if it works, but so far looking good…
What a friendly message... Matplotlib builds and works fine on cygwin when disabling the tkagg backend in setup.cfg.
