[Matplotlib-users] Gobject missing

[David N. <Nor...@ga...>]

I've just installed Matplotlib with the 2.3 version of Python packaged 
by Enthought & believe I followed the instructions on the Matplotlib web 
page.  I am getting the following error message:

IDLE 1.0
 >>> from matplotlib.matlab import *

Traceback (most recent call last):

I'd be grateful for any suggestions.
