There seems to exist a unresolved dependence to py-tornado that was not brought in with the update. Strangely, just importing `matplotlib` works, but as soon as you try to "require" it through setuptools, it will break. Installing py*-tornado fixes the problem. To fix this problem one would need to add py*-tornado as a MacPort dependence to py*-matplotlib. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/40134> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
