Hi, I have OS X 10.6.6, Python 2.7.1 installed from the binary at python.org, and I am trying to get mpl 1.0.1 running. I have no problem with numpy/scipy, but I seem to be having 32 vs. 64 bit issues with mpl. I believe that the binaries online are only 32 bit, yet my installation is 64 bit. I have tried using the make.osx file, but this has not proved successful so far. In part, I am trying to avoid installing duplicate png/zlib/freetype/... libraries, which seem to be working fine at present. Has anyone successfully gotten this running from source? Alternatively, does anyone have 64 bit binaries?

I have compiled matplotlib with a 64 bit Python on Mac OS X (using setup.py) for the MacOSX backend. It's not as hard as it may seem.
You will need 64-bit (or multiple-architecture) libraries for zlib, libpng, etc. You may have those already; you can check that by running "file" on the library. For example:
$ file /usr/local/lib/libpng.dylib
/usr/local/lib/libpng.dylib: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures
/usr/local/lib/libpng.dylib (for architecture i386): Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386
/usr/local/lib/libpng.dylib (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit dynamically linked shared library x86_64
If the library is 32-bit only, then you will have to compile your own zlib, libpng etc. If the library includes 64-bit, then you just need to compile matplotlib.
