trouble installing matplotlib on redhat

Hi

I am new to python and matplotlib. I have a little script that works fine on my mac. How ever it does not run on my amazon ec2 cluster. I am basically running a version of redhead. I have been able to install most of the dependencies how ever I can not figure out to install libagg, free type, or qhull. I tried using yum how ever this did not work.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

The issue is that we are requiring freetype 2.4 when we only need 2.3.
This has been fixed on both the maintenance branch and master and will
be included in 1.4.1 (which we hope to get out in the next week).

See update freetype version in docs · Issue #3413 · matplotlib/matplotlib · GitHub.
