Has anyone successfully installed and run matplotlib from the .dmg here:
http://sda.iu.edu/projects.html ?
I'm able to install just fine and I can import pylab and create a plot,
but using "pylab.show()" crashes Python and returns "Segmentation Fault"
and nothing else.
Also has anyone successfully installed BaseMap on OS X?
I've attempted to install the latest BaseMap package (I believe it's
0.3.2) and receive the following error:
error: could not create
'/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/share/basemap-py23':
Permission denied
I'm running the stock Python 2.3 and Matplotlib 0.72.1 from the link
above.
Thanks,
Travis Brady

Travis: Regarding the basemap install - you need admin privileges on your mac to install using "python setup.py install", so either run it as sudo, or if you don't have admin access try "python setup.py install --home=~" (this will install it in your home directory). If you do the latter, you'll have to add ~/lib/python to your PYTHONPATH.

Excellent, thanks for the prompt response, Jeff.
I've just tried the ireland.py example and am at a complete loss as to
what to do about the following error.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "ireland.py", line 21, in ?
show()
File "/platlib/matplotlib/backends/backend_wx.py", line 1156, in show
File "/platlib/matplotlib/backends/backend_wxagg.py", line 52, in draw

File "/platlib/matplotlib/lines.py", line 283, in draw
File "/platlib/matplotlib/lines.py", line 543, in _draw_dashed
TypeError: CXX: type error.
Any thoughts?
Travis
