A note on putting matplotlib in El Capitan with pip. It's a punch line that pkg-config and freetype are not included, so there is not much content.
First of all, hit the command casually. But I get an error.
$ pip install matplotlib
Collecting matplotlib
Using cached matplotlib-1.5.3.tar.gz
Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:

----------------------------------------
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /private/var/folders/8p/6g32nfj53nn59v0py80lzjgx2rswc_/T/pip-build-0vtpc0zd/matplotlib/
Since it is said as below, I decided to put both in homebrew.
pkg-config is not installed
freetype: no [The C/C++ header for freetype2 (ft2build.h)
could not be found. You may need to install the
development package.]
First, install what you need with the brew command, then
$ brew install pkg-config freetype
Install matplotlib again.
$ pip install matplotlib
This time it worked.
