I'm trying to install vn 1.2 of Matplotlib on my Ubuntu computer so that I can use some of the animation features. Crucially I also need Basemap.
The only way I've found of importing Basemap is through apt-get. I can install matplotlib 1.2 loads of different ways - using pip, apt-get and from source, but no matter what I do, when it comes to typing in
I'm always told that matplotlib will be installed because apt-get can't see the version 1.2 that I already have.
I've also tried installing Basemap from source (using the instructions on this wonderful website:<a href="http://peak5390.wordpress.com/2012/...p-tutorial-installing-matplotlib-and-basemap/" rel="nofollow">http://peak5390.wordpress.com/2012/...p-tutorial-installing-matplotlib-and-basemap/</a>) but I'm running into GEOS-related problems that I have no idea how to start solving. If I can use apt-get for installing Basemap then I'd be very happy.
Thank you
