Python matplotlib install issue on Windows 7 for freetype, png packages

As you can see it png and freetype modules are missing. You need to install them separately.

Try doing the following :

> pip install freetype-py
> pip install pypng
> pip install matplotlib

I solved it by taking version 1.5.1

pip install matplotlib==1.5.1

it seems that version 1.5.2 installer is broken.

Get matplotlib from above location. Choose correct package based on python(2.x/3.x) and bit(32/64) version.

32-bit 2.7: matplotlib-1.5.2-cp27-cp27m-win32.whl
64-bit 2.7: matplotlib-1.5.2-cp27-cp27m-win_amd64.whl
