[Matplotlib-users] Symbol not found

[Ranjit C. <rjc...@gm...>]

I finally somehow managed to get matplotlib to compile but now when I try to
import matplotlib.pyplot I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'pyplot'

What is going wrong here?
