Re: [matplotlib-devel] python 3 fork?

[Tom L. <tom...@gm...>]

I cloned the master branch on github and built it.  I'm on OS X 10.7, using the python 3.2 from python.org.  I installed fresh dependencies like in the osx makefile.  Then I had to run 2to3 on setupegg.py to get it to build.  Now when I try to import matplotlib in python3 I get a bunch of errors - e.g. it's looking for cPickle instead of pickle.
