Re: [Matplotlib-users] Problem: AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute '_string_to_bool'

[Thomas C. <tca...@gm...>]

This is related to files from the previous implementation still being
around.  Please make sure you have fully removed the old mpl installation
before installing the new one.  Be aware that there is some difference in
the way pip/setuptools/distutils deal with namespace packages so look for
both `matplotlib` and `mpl_toolkits` directories.
