Python 安装旧版matplotlib导致freetype和png错误

Question

我正在尝试安装以下软件包：https://pypi.org/project/autocluster/

但是，它看起来需要使用 matplotlib==3.0.3，因为当我尝试安装它时出现以下错误：

我已经安装了更新版本的 matplotlib，我也尝试安装旧版本，但它的核心是使用 3.0.3 构建新包。如何正确安装此版本或绕过该问题？

pip3 install matplotlib==3.0.3 -U

Answer 1

matplotlib 3.0.3 provides wheels 适用于 Python 3.5-3.7 但不适用于 3.8，因此 pip 尝试从源构建但失败了。

使用Python 3.7。或者 install dependencies and build from sources.
