Installing matplotlib on mac os 10.6 (Snow Leopard)?

I've not been able to find a successful way to install matplotlib since
upgrading to OS 10.6. There doesn't seem to be an egg for it. Easy_install
matplotlib finds an old version (0.91) that is not compatible with the new
numpy supplied by Apple. Easy_install matplotlib-0.99.1 can't find it.
Likewise, easy_install
http://sourceforge.net/projects/matplotlib/matplotlib-0.99.1/matplotlib-0.99
.1.1.tar.gz doesn't find it.

I tried downloading the gzipped tar file, then python setup install , but I
got a compile error. I'm now stumped. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Bill Carithers

Hello,

First, make sure that you have installed the Apple Developer Tools, and the "BSD components" from the DVDs OS X.

Then, please indicate your version of python, and of numpy, and give the installation log.
