Building matplotlib on Mac OS snow leopard
I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to build matplotlib on Snow Leopard without using macports – I prefer to use homebrew instead and ended up with incompatible binaries, until I found ‘This’. Notes Edit make.osx
- MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.6
- PREFIX=/usr/local
- ## You shouldn't need to configure past this point (and yet…)
- PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PREFIX}/lib/pkgconfig"
- CFLAGS="-arch i386 -arch x86_64 -I${PREFIX}/include -I${PREFIX}/include/freetype2 -isysroot /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk"
- LDFLAGS="-arch i386 -arch x86_64 -L${PREFIX}/lib -syslibroot,/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk"
- FFLAGS="-arch i386 -arch x86_64"
Set
- wxagg = False
in setup.cfg And finally:
- sudo make -f make.osx fetch deps mpl_build mpl_install
- sudo python setup.py install
