Hello Benjamin,

Thank you for the prompt reply. I tried both ma5v1.7.alpha and ma5_v1.7.tmp but, unfortunately, they both give the same eroor as before.

I looked for a possible solution and I knew that I should change http: to https: (i.e., to add s) in the file
/tmp/mashry/MA5_matplotlib/matplotlib-1.3.1/distribute_setup.py

I found the file and editted it, but once I try to reinstall matplotlib again from ma5, it delete the file and reproduce it again with the old format.

Any suggestion?

Mustafa

Hi Mustafa,

Please try to install matplotlib externally and see whether it works.

Cheers,
