[Pythonmac-SIG] matplotlib problems

[Samuel M.Smith]

I installed the matplotlib from http://pythonmac.org/packages/ 
matplotlib-0.82-py2.4-macosx10.3.zip

if I try to import pylab it exits and complains about not having pygtk.

It is my understanding that if I have wxPython installed that I don't  
need pygtk. Apparently
the dependency is still there. Am I missing something.

I put matplotlibrc in ~/.matplotlib.

i changed the default configuration to use the WxAgg

#### CONFIGURATION BEGINS HERE
backend      : WxAgg    # the default backend is GTKAgg
numerix      : Numeric   # Numeric or numarray
interactive  : False     # see http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/ 
interactive.html
toolbar      : toolbar2   # None | classic | toolbar2
timezone     : UTC        # a pytz timezone string, eg US/Central or  
Europe/Paris


but it didn't change anything. Anybody use matplotlib pylab  and  
could tell me how to
get it to work?
