无法在python 3中导入matplotlib.pyplot

Question

我按照下面的说明为python 3安装matplotlib：How to install matplotlib with Python3.2

但是，在导入pyplot时，我得到了一个无法解析的ImportError：

>>> import matplotlib
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
 File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/matplotlib-1.4.x-py3.2-linux-i686.egg/matplotlib/pyplot.py", line 98, in <module>
_backend_mod, new_figure_manager, draw_if_interactive, _show = pylab_setup()
 File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/matplotlib-1.4.x-py3.2-linux-i686.egg/matplotlib/backends/__init__.py", line 25, in pylab_setup
globals(),locals(),[backend_name])
 File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/matplotlib-1.4.x-py3.2-linux-i686.egg/matplotlib/backends/backend_gtk3agg.py", line 1, in <module>
   import cairo
ImportError: No module named cairo 

我已经尝试过matplotlib.use('Agg')和matplotlib.use('GTK')，但是它们并没有什么区别。

任何帮助都将不胜感激，谢谢。

这表明我有所有所需的依赖项。

问题导致mac os中的图像呈现matplotlib的后端(默认情况下使用Cocoa的API呈现后端)。有Qt4Agg和GTKAgg，并且作为后端不是默认的。设置与其他窗口或linux操作系统不同的macosx后端。

我按照假设您已经安装了的方式解决了这个问题，您的根目录中有一个名为~ /的目录。matplotlib在那里创建一个名为matplotlibrc的文件，并编写以下代码

~ / .matplotlib / Matplotlibrc
backend: TkAgg
