Also, be careful: don't only change the Darwin to Linux in the "if" line.  If you look down you will see that you also need to change where it writes the output files and declares things.  There are other Darwins in that code block you will need to change to "Linux64".

So I moved to Spring2013..and added the matplotlib system entry, though
I was able to avoid doing so entirely with the Winter2013 attempt.  Did
the config step for numpy, and skipped the config file as you suggested
but it ended with this:

eups distrib: No source is available for package matplotlib system

My manifest.remap looks like this:
        python  system
        numpy   system
        scipy   system
        matplotlib system
        gcc     system
        gmp     None
        mpfr    None
        mpc     None


Where I had to add the numpy, scipy and matplot lib entries - the rest
appeared on their own after editing newinstall.sh
My Anaconda 1.8.0 has matplotlib 1.3.1

Take care,
Heather
