Hi,
I was following the directions found here:
http://old.nabble.com/ImportError:-No-module-named-mplot3d-td24291309.html
which consists of:
svn co https://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/trunk/matplotlib
matplotlib
python setup.py install
-when I executed that last command I get the following:
wayne@…793…:matplotlib$ sudo python setup.py install

WXAgg’s accelerator requires `wx-config’. The
-
`wx-config’ executable could not be located in any
-
directory of the PATH environment variable. If you
-
want to build WXAgg, and wx-config is in some

WX_CONFIG environment variable to the full path of
-
the executable like so: export WX_CONFIG=/usr/lib

I’ve searched for the ltk8.5 error on google and wasn’t able to find anything that helped. One that looked promising but failed to help: http://old.nabble.com/Building-matplotlib-0.99.1.1:-cannot-find–ltk8.5-(whereas-0.91.4-works)-td25677275.html#a25677275
I really want the mpl_toolkits.mplot3d library…
Thanks for any help,
Wayne
