Re: [Matplotlib-users] problems installing matplotlib on OS X Lion

I don't know about changing backends, but I do need to use TkAgg. I finally got it working. The instructions from the original email below are what worked, but first I had to uninstall Tcl8.6 (manually). The first time I tried it I deleted something that I shouldn't have, and ended up with a mess that I cleaned up by doing a full erase/reinstall of Lion. Then I restored the system from a backup, carefully removed Tcl8.6 manually (the uninstall script is broken), removed most of the remnants of macports, reinstalled a few things that were broken by the reinstall of Lion (XCode, XQuartz, WingIDE, TextWrangler), uninstalled and reinstalled Python 2.7.2, reinstalled Tcl8.5, and rebuilt matplotlib per the instructions. Hopefully it will go much smoother when I set up the new system in a few days. Thanks for your help...
