[Matplotlib-users] Error installing matplotlib

[Cristóbal G. <kir...@gm...>]

Hi I'm trying to install matplotlib in debian wheezy. But I get the
following error:
GotoBLAS : Architecture Initialization failed. No initialization function found.
I can't find anything useful in google.

Matplotlib doesn't know about blas directly, as far as I know, so my 
guess is that the error is actually coming from an attempt to import numpy.

Can you import and run numpy on the system in question?

Based on your link below, I suspect it is indeed a KVM problem; the 
error message suggests that GotoBLAS is trying to configure itself based 
on the architecture it is running on.  Maybe the KVM VM is not 
identifying itself in a way that GotoBLAS recognizes.

No, I cant:

    >>> import numpy
    GotoBLAS : Architecture Initialization failed. No initialization
function found.

Thanks for the suggestion!
