9 # This can be a single directory or a comma-delimited list of directories.
13 # To suppress display of the dependencies and their versions
14 # at the top of the build log, uncomment the following line:
18 # There are a number of subpackages of matplotlib that are considered
19 # optional. They are all installed by default, but they may be turned
27 # Matplotlib supports multiple GUI toolkits, including Cocoa,
28 # GTK, Fltk, MacOSX, Qt, Qt4, Tk, and WX. Support for many of
29 # these toolkits requires AGG, the Anti-Grain Geometry library,
30 # which is provided by matplotlib and built by default.
32 # Some backends are written in pure Python, and others require
33 # extension code to be compiled. By default, matplotlib checks for
34 # these GUI toolkits during installation and, if present, compiles the
35 # required extensions to support the toolkit.
37 # - GTK 2.x support of any kind requires the GTK runtime environment
39 # - Tk support requires Tk development headers and Tkinter.
40 # - Mac OSX backend requires the Cocoa headers included with XCode.
41 # - Windowing is MS-Windows specific, and requires the "windows.h"
44 # The other GUI toolkits do not require any extension code, and can be
45 # used as long as the libraries are installed on your system --
46 # therefore they are installed unconditionally.
48 # You can uncomment any the following lines to change this
49 # behavior. Acceptible values are:
51 # True: build the extension. Exits with a warning if the
52 # required dependencies are not available
53 # False: do not build the extension
54 # auto: build if the required dependencies are available,
55 # otherwise skip silently. This is the default
72 # User-configurable options
74 # Default backend, one of: Agg, Cairo, CocoaAgg, GTK, GTKAgg, GTKCairo,
75 # FltkAgg, MacOSX, Pdf, Ps, QtAgg, Qt4Agg, SVG, TkAgg, WX, WXAgg.
77 # The Agg, Ps, Pdf and SVG backends do not require external
78 # dependencies. Do not choose GTK, GTKAgg, GTKCairo, MacOSX, or TkAgg
79 # if you have disabled the relevent extension modules. Agg will be used
