Re: [matplotlib-devel] Easy problem working with dev library

[Paul H. <pmh...@gm...>]

After you've setup your development environment with all of the MPL
dependencies, navigate to the MPL source directory and install it with:

$ python setup.py develop

or

$ pip install -e .

That'll create a link in site-packages (or whatever that directory is) to
the source directory. After you make changes to the source code, you'll
either need to use the "imp" module to reload MPL and the submodule you
changed. I typically find it easier to just restart my python interpreter.
