Sounds like you have conflicting numpy versions on your system and Python is getting confused about which one to load. Things to try:

- Check you environment variables, to make sure you have nothing like `PYTHONPATH` defined that would confuse Python (since you are using the Conda `python`, you don’t want it to get confused with some other `python` installed on your system).

- Since you are on Linux, try using the system Python instead of Conda. Do `ENV["PYTHON"]="python"; Pkg.build("PyCall")` and use your system’s packaging tools to install Matplotlib if it is not installed already.
