Or in other words, the Travis instance is trying to execute an "import matplotlib..." and fails because matplotlib is not installed there. Except for the docs, I think matplotlib code is not being tested in scikit-learn's unit tests (and hence, it's not being installed). Does your code/contribution require matplotlib or is it just imported "by accident"? If the latter is true, simply removing matplotlib imports will prob. solve the issue; otherwise, I guess discussing the PR via an issue with the main devs might be the way to go.</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Best,</p><p class=MsoNormal>Sebastian</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>> On Sep 14, 2017, at 9:24 PM, L Ali <nj.yuanli@gmail.com> wrote:</p><p class=MsoNormal>> </p><p class=MsoNormal>> Hi guys,</p><p class=MsoNormal>> </p><p class=MsoNormal>> I am totally new to the scikit-learn, I am going to submit a pull request to the repository, but always got following error message, I could not find any usefully information from Google, my last hope is our community.</p><p class=MsoNormal>> </p><p class=MsoNormal>> Is there anyone can give me some advise about this error: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'matplotlib'</p><p class=MsoNormal>> </p><p class=MsoNormal>> Thanks so much!</p><p class=MsoNormal>> </p><p class=MsoNormal>> <F29260EB7C164340BDED515E54DA3883.png></p><p class=MsoNormal>> </p><p class=MsoNormal>> Li Yuan</p><p class=MsoNormal>> </p><p class=MsoNormal>> <F29260EB7C164340BDED515E54DA3883.png>_______________________________________________</p><p class=MsoNormal>> scikit-learn mailing list</p><p class=MsoNormal>> scikit-learn@python.org</p><p class=MsoNormal>> https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/scikit-learn</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>_______________________________________________</p><p class=MsoNormal>scikit-learn mailing list</p><p class=MsoNormal>scikit-learn@python.org</p><p class=MsoNormal>https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/scikit-learn</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
