[Matplotlib-users] Matplotlib tkinter error

[Thomas Caswell]

Do you have a file called `tempfile.py` in the directory you are running
the script from?

The issue is that the module `tempfile` (which should be coming from the
standard library) is reporting that it does not have an expected member
(TemporaryFile).   If you are shadowing that module with a local file you
will see exceptions like this.  The other option is that you python
installation is broken.
