[Matplotlib-users] No module named Matrix import error

[Andrew S. <st...@cs...>]

Hi--

I'm trying to get matplotlib installed on my laptop before my holiday 
travels begin.  I've acquired all the dependencies through synaptic and 
built matplotlib from source, but when I attempt to import pylab I get 
the following error:

This happens with Numeric specified in my matplotlibrc.  If I specify 
numarray, I get a different import error:

So, I suspect something is wrong in Numerix, but I have no idea what, or 
more importantly how to fix it.  Could anyone help?  It would be much 
appreciated.

Please cc me; I am not subscrived to the list.

Thanks in advance,
