Hi Nathan,
Simply trying to run iyt produces the error. Here's a link with the error
output I'm receiving http://pastebin.com/j11nKn58
Thanks for your help,

Hi Gary,
I don't think I've seen this before.
Can you paste the a small script that triggers this, along with the full traceback you get when the script errors out?
Cheers
Nathan

Hello,
Suddenly my yt distribution seems to be broken because it cannot find the module sip. Sip appears to be a python/C interface that is called by matplotlib.pyplot. I have tried a few things to resolve the issue, none of which have worked. I've tried: yt update --all, pip install sip, and apt-get install yt using the repository mentioned on the Get YT page. pip install and apt-get install fail for separate reasons, which I can explain in a future email if necessary.
Since first encountering this problem, I have updated my OS because I realized I was using an outdated version of Ubuntu. I am now running Ubuntu 12.4 LTS. The OS update did not resolve the issue.
It seems worth mentioning that the default system python distribution is working fine and I am able to import pyplot as well as sip without a problem. During a quick search of the yt distribution, I did not find the same sip related files that I have in my system's python distribution.
Also, as of Friday, things are working fine with the yt distribution I have on my Mac laptop.
Thanks very much in advance for your help. Please let me know if you would like me to post some of the error messages I have received from the few solutions that I've tried.
Gary
