导入matplotlib.pyplot挂起

Question

我正在尝试在OS 10.8.4上启动和运行matplotlib。我已经安装了matplotlib和依赖项(libping，freetype，numpy，scipy)。我可以很好地导入matplotlib。但是，如果我尝试导入matplotlib.pyplot，它就会挂起。没有错误，只是什么都没发生。

>>> import matplotlib.pyplot

...我已经等了大概20分钟，什么也没发生.我使用的是1.2.1版本，但即使卸载了它，也尝试了1.2.0版本，但都没有用。我在SO上看到了很多关于matplotlib.pyplot导入错误的问题，但没有出现挂起的问题。然后，我尝试使用hanging /Canopy python发行版让它正常工作，但还是出现了同样的挂起问题。下面是我在删除导入时看到的结果：

KeyboardInterrupt

当我使用OS自带的默认python2.7时，输出是相同的。

更新

允许import matplotlib.pyplot运行几个小时，然后中断导入，现在会得到以下输出：

KeyboardInterrupt

有人知道递归for x in walk(new_path, topdown, onerror, followlinks):可能表示什么吗？

Answer 1

您可以通过执行以下操作来修复Mac OS X Mavericks和Yosemite上的问题：

cd ~/.matplotlib/
fc-list  # Should take a couple minutes.

在fc-list运行完成后，您将能够使用import matplotlib.pyplot as plt导入该包。这是包含解决方案的github issue。这个bug似乎与字体缓存有关。

Answer 2

我知道是怎么回事了。希望这个解决方案对其他人有用。在/usr/X11/lib文件夹中，有一个指向目录本身的符号链接。这似乎创建了一个无限循环。当我删除链接时，导入起作用了。

Answer 3

我在Linux上也遇到了同样的问题。

原来matplotlib在找出要使用的GUI后端时遇到了一些问题。

显式声明它使用Tkinter背景-默认情况下，使用以下命令解决了问题：

%matplotlib tk

然后是导入

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

和预期的一样。
