Re: [Matplotlib-users] 1.3.0 and py2exe regression

[cheflo <joe...@gm...>]

There is a quite simple workaround to this problem. Find the directory from
which mpl_tools is imported and simply add an empty text file named
"__init__.py" in that directory. py2exe will now find and include this
module without any special imports needed in the setup file.

You can find the mpl_tools directory by typing the following in a python
console:
import importlib
importlib.import_module('mpl_toolkits').__path__

I found the solution here http://stackoverflow.com/a/11632115/2166823 and it
seems to apply to namespace packages in general.

I posted this solution to Stack Overflow as well
