Having issues with installing the matplotlib package under Linux SUSE SLES 11
SP1 (s390):
The original distribution gcc throws an error:
"src/ft2font.h:14:22: error: ft2build.h: No such file or directory"
when adding the file ft2build.h the linkage process stops at this error:
G++ cannot find -lfreetype
When trying to manually install the latest Freetype2 package, I get an error
when using the package build commands, both at the "make" and "jam"
Errors:

I wouldn't recommend trying to build freetype from source. Have you installed the freetype development package? I'm not familiar with SuSE, but on RedHat/Fedora this would be accomplished by (as root) "yum install freetype2-dev" and on Debian/Ubuntu "apt-get install freetype2-devel".

Thanks Michael for your quick reply. I will consider use of the yum tool to
install the per-requisite and future updates.
Meanwhile I got a step forwards with help of the freetype developer forum
and I succeeded to build the freetype2 from the source. So I've also
repeated the "python setup.py build" which gave me a new error message
"cannot find -lz " . See the linker command below:
g++ -pthread -shared build/temp.linux-s390x-2.6/src/ft2font.o
build/temp.linux-s390x-2.6/src/mplutils.o

/usr/lib64/gcc/s390x-suse-linux/4.3/../../../../s390x-suse-linux/bin/ld:

Hope somebody from this forum can give me some insights about this
dependency, to complete the matplotlib install process.
Thanks in advance for your support.

Claude

That error means mpl could not find libz, which probably means you
don't have libpng installed either. mpl has a fair number of
dependencies. See
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/users/installing.html#build-requirements
On debian systems, there is a brilliant command
apt-get build-dep python-matplotlib
which will install everything you need to build mpl from source.
SUSE is RPM based: is there anything equivalent in rpm yum land?

Hi,
On SUSE you have "zypper"
I'm not familiar with SUSE repos, but OpenSUSE repos do have
matplotlib, just type:
"sudo zypper in python-matplolib"
that should install it for you.

Yes, and it has been included in the docs for the v1.1.0 release.
You will need to install whatever package that would contain the program ‘yum-builddep’ and use the command:
yum-builddep python-matplotlib
I hope that helps!

Yes, all you have to do is write a script that install all the
depencies with "sudo zypper in ...". To get a list of the dependencies
in "OpenSUSE names" you can check this spec file and install
everything flagged as "BuildRequires":
https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file?file=python-matplotlib.spec&package=python-matplotlib&project=home%3Aocefpaf&srcmd5=c5a84278ace03073116b104df3e303e3
However, I recommend non-developer to use a packaged version. I
maintain a weekly git checkout of matplotlib for OpenSUSE in my home
repo here:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ocefpaf/openSUSE_11.4/
(for 11.4)
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/ocefpaf/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/

Thanks friends from the Matplotlib and Freetype forum,
=)
I've succeeded to compile all per-requisites from the source and executed
the python build and install successfully under the SUSE Linux. I've
already executed a few sample cases with a Agg .png render, its working
perfectly under the s390 mainframe.
In summary: Overall, all great support from the community, thanks.
