Error when Installing matplotlib using pip

Question

I know that there have already been questions pertaining to this and most of them were resolved by installing libfreetype6-dev and libpng-dev . I have installed both of those libraries using apt-get, but I am still coming up with an error when trying to use

pip install matplotlib

The error I get is:

gcc: error trying to exec 'cc1plus': execvp: No such file or directory
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

Answer 1

It seems you need to install g++

sudo apt-get install g++
aptitude install g++

Answer 2

万一遇到更多问题，您可能需要安装Anaconda，这是一站式商店，其中包含许多管理依赖项并包括mathplotlib的python库。
