Hi,
I am trying to use matplotlib on a server which I don't run without it installed. I tried untarring it to a folder in the path of PYTHONPATH and using it directly without any luck.
Has anyone successfully installed matplotlib and its dependencies under a user account?
Cheers,

Sure, that's not particularly difficult. But untarring won't be
enough. You also have to build it. We'd need to know more about your
platform to help, but basically: install the dependencies and then run
python setup.py install --prefix=~/mylocal
On ubuntu and similar, you can get the build dependencies by first doing
> sudo python setup.py build_dep python-matplotlib
See http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/users/installing.html
For running on a web app server, see also
