Memory error while using pip install Matplotlib

by

This error is coming up because, it seems, pip’s caching mechanism is trying to read the entire file into memory before caching it… which poses a problem in a limited-memory environment, as matplotlib is ~50mb.

A simpler solution, until pip is patched to use a constant-space caching algorithm, is to run pip with --no-cache-dir to avoid the cache:

$ pip --no-cache-dir install matplotlib
