When install ”matplotlib” with ”pip”, if you get the following error, it means the “freetype” and “png” libraries needed by matplotlib are not installed:

So install them:
apt-cache search freetype | grep dev apt-cache search libpng | grep dev sudo apt-get install libfreetype6-dev libpng12-dev pip install matplotlib Done. |
