I hope I have this cracked now, at least in principle.

The latest versions are here:

http://nipy.bic.berkeley.edu/scipy_installers/

Following Matt Terry's example, I'm testing the builds and then the
installers here:

Travis CI - Test and Deploy with Confidence

The last ones I got from you worked very well: just a few test failures
and the current one seems to be doing about the same.

Thank you very much for providing these! I hope you will post them to
the matplotlib official site.

One odd failure (in both of them) that I don't remember seeing before:
/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/projections/geo.py:485:
RuntimeWarning: invalid value encountered in arcsin
  theta = np.arcsin(y / np.sqrt(2))

There's a complaint about an invalid font name, but I've seen that for
quite some time:
Ekpathsea: Invalid fontname `Bitstream Vera Serif', contains ' '

FAILED (KNOWNFAIL=2, SKIP=1, errors=2)

One small suggestion: if it's not too much trouble, might you make them
.dmgs? It's a bit more convenient then having to unzip them to use them.
But if it's too much work don't bother; zipped mpkg are fine and it's
wonderful to have complete binary installers.

I'd be happy to - I think I'm waiting for some agreement that that is
OK. I suppose I don't have permission to do that at the moment.

Yes - sure - I'll build the DMGs - was just trying to save myself some
effort while waiting for feedback - and - thanks for the feedback ...

Cheers,

Let's talk about this at tomorrow's meeting -- or offline if you can't make the meeting. Ideally, yes, these should be posted with the other files. We can sort out the required permissions etc. offlist.

worked well for me too (something odd with wx back end re-rendering,
but I doubt that's a Mac build issue...)

I tok a quick look at your waf scripts and I couldn't tell how you are
handling the external compiled dependencies (png, zlib, freetype) --
are these statically linked in?

It'll be good to see these posted on the MPL download site.

Hi,

Yup:

through line 44 define the build rules for the libraries.

I then (this came from John H's make script I think) delete any shared
libraries:

and force mpl to link against these libraries first by setting
'basedir' in 'setup.cfg':

I should probably disable building the shared libraries as Matt T does
in his builds.

Cheers,

Matthew
