because I am not getting error like this

Hi, @neurohacker . That's odd, but it doesn't appear to be Mac OSX-specific. It actually looks like either a numpy issue or an Ubuntu issue.

Could you try just rebuilding the docker image with the --no-cache option and see if that error still shows up? I know it takes a while to re-download everything, but I'm betting the issue is transient. I'll try to reproduce on my machine as well.

I've attempted a limited reproduction with a new container, installing python-matplotlib and importing matplotlib, but it imports fine. If you experience the issue on a new container, please re-open this issue.
