Re: [Matplotlib-users] installation problem

[jw <gw...@ou...>]

I installed using version 1.3.1 windows binary
"matplotlib-1.3.1.win32-py2.7.exe" from mathplotlib download. Installation
went fine, but when using the package, it says "dateutil" and "pyparsing"
are missing, which are supposed to be bundled according to the installation
instruction. Is this a bug or expected behavior from now on? I did not have
this issue for earlier versions of matplotlib.
My base python is 2.7.8.

If anyone is having the issue, either download the binaries from pythonlibs
mentioned above, or
install from the sources, which I did as follows:
(1) Install setuptools if you don't have it. 
    Download source from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools;
    Unpack and run 'ez_setup.py install'; or 'python ez_setup.py install'
    This will install setuptools.
    
(2) Install any other package by downloading the source, unpacking, and 
    running 'setup.py install'
    e.g., "dateutil" has been installed this way.
    https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-dateutil, same for pyparsing
