I tried to install matplotlib 1.3.1 on the release candidates of Python 2.7.6 and 3.3.3. I am on Mac OS X 10.6.8. Although the installation gave no problems, there is a problem with Tcl/Tk. The new Pythons have their own embedded Tcl/Tk, but when installing matplotlib it links to the Frameworks version of Tcl and TK, not to the embedded version. This causes confusion when importing matplotlib.pyplot: objc[70648]: Class TKApplication is implemented in both /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/libtk8.5.dylib and /Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Versions/8.5/Tk. One of the two will be used. Which one is undefined. objc[70648]: Class TKMenu is implemented in both /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/libtk8.5.dylib and /Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Versions/8.5/Tk. One of the two will be used. Which one is undefined. objc[70648]: Class TKContentView is implemented in both /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/libtk8.5.dylib and /Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Versions/8.5/Tk. One of the two will be used. Which one is undefined. objc[70648]: Class TKWindow is implemented in both /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/libtk8.5.dylib and /Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/Versions/8.5/Tk. One of the two will be used. Which one is undefined. And then later it gives a lot of error messages. So I think it should be linked to the embedded version. For this the matplotlib setupext.py should be adapted to find out if there is an embedded Tcl/Tk in the Python installation and set the link parameters accordingly. However, the installed Python versions (from the DMG's) do not contain the Tcl/Tk header files, only the shared library and the tcl files. So I thing the distributed Python should also include the Tcl/Tk header files. https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2013-November/129993.html ---------- assignee: ned.deily components: Installation, Macintosh messages: 202097 nosy: benjamin.peterson, georg.brandl, larry, ned.deily, pietvo priority: release blocker severity: normal status: open title: Problem installing matplotlib 1.3.1 with Python 2.7.6rc1 and 3.3.3rc1 versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.3, Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19490> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
