It appears that the build of matplotlib in conda-forge does not require
pyqt5:
So in your case, I would do:
conda remove pyqt5 matplotlib
conda install --channel=conda-forge matplotlib

no, pyqt5 is not a dependency for matplotlib. this looks like a conda
packaging issue.Side note: the sourceforge mailing list is deprecated. Please use the
python.org version instead (you'll have to re-register).Ben Root

I just created a new conda environment with Matplotlib included, and it
duly installed matplotlib: 2.0.0-np111py27_0. It installed PyQt5 by
default, whereas I need PyQt4, but when I installed PyQt4 (conda install
pyqt=4), it automatically downgraded Matplotlib to 1.5.1.
--------
The following packages will be DOWNGRADED due to dependency conflicts:matplotlib: 2.0.0-np111py27_0 --> 1.5.1-np111py27_0
pyqt: 5.6.0-py27_2 --> 4.11.4-py27_4
qt: 5.6.2-0 --> 4.8.7-4
--------
Is PyQt5 really a dependency for Matplotlib v2? I have been testing
release candidate versions of Matplotlib v2 without any problem. This will
cause headaches to my users who want the latest features.Ray
