Hello guys getting the following error on my jupyter notebook -

Running a codeblock with %matplotlib gtk results in the exception

/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_gdk.py in <module>()
 31 from matplotlib.mathtext import MathTextParser
 32 from matplotlib.transforms import Affine2D
 ---> 33 from matplotlib.backends._backend_gdk import pixbuf_get_pixels_array
 34 
 35 backend_version = "%d.%d.%d" % gtk.pygtk_version
 ImportError: No module named _backend_gdk

However Installing the pygtk package with homebrew did succeeded. Any ideas? I'm using the anaconda distribution of python

Take a look at this thread:

ImportError: No module named _backend_gdk

There, installing python-gtk2-dev is recommended.

sudo apt-get install python-gtk2-dev
