it looks like the latest version of matplotlib has pytz bundled, thus causing the conflict.


Steps to reproduce:

playing with the source install, I've just realized that setup.py is checking if several dependencies are present on the system :

this is what you get when pytz is installed :


OPTIONAL DATE/TIMEZONE DEPENDENCIES
datetime: present, version unknown
dateutil: matplotlib will provide
pytz: 2009d


and when it is not :


OPTIONAL DATE/TIMEZONE DEPENDENCIES
datetime: present, version unknown
dateutil: matplotlib will provide
pytz: matplotlib will provide
adding pytz


My guess is that the package has been generated on a system without pytz, thus forcing matplotlib's setup.py to provide it.

Should be fixed in -2. And no, the check system of setup.py is broken. It also detects my system as running macosx.
