I tried to import matplotlib module to my flatpak project by generating modules by flatpak-pip-generator but I got this error when running:

    Edit mplsetup.cfg to change the build options; suppress output with --quiet.

I dont know why error here is:

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement setuptools_scm_git_archive (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for setuptools_scm_git_archive

Here is the details of the modules file.

SOLUTION You can follow this github link to work with previous version of matplotlib.

  • Judging my the entire error message, you Internet connection is not working properly. It says that it couldn't find a "matching distribution", but if you look higher up at the `WARNING: Retrying (Retry(total=4, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None, status=None))...` errors, it seems that it can't connect to the Internet. Try checking your Internet connection. I've gotten errors like this before, and it was because my WiFi was having trouble. – Sylvester Kruin Dec 22 '21 at 20:31
  • Actually, I can't manage to make the latest version of matplotlib (3.5.1) to work with flatpak. But I tried previous version and it works fine. I will edit this question! – Đỗ Quang Huy Dec 23 '21 at 01:55
