import matplotlib 出现“No module named 'pyparsing'“问题

问题

用pip安装完matplotlib，在python中导入matplotlib时出现如下错误

>>> import matplotlib
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/home/xiaobo/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/matplotlib/__init__.py", line 141, in <module>
    from . import cbook, rcsetup
  File "/home/xiaobo/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/matplotlib/rcsetup.py", line 25, in <module>
    from matplotlib.fontconfig_pattern import parse_fontconfig_pattern
  File "/home/xiaobo/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/matplotlib/fontconfig_pattern.py", line 19, in <module>
    from pyparsing import (Literal, ZeroOrMore, Optional, Regex, StringEnd,
ImportError: No module named 'pyparsing'

但是利用pip list查看安装的库发现已经安装pyparsing库了，经过分析觉得可能是pyparsing版本过低的原因

解决

最开始打算直接再安装一遍

pip install pyparsi
