Bug report

When I want to use pyplot from matplotlib, it causes error.
There is no problem with import matplotlib but I cannot use pyplot

Code for reproduction

from matplotlib import pyplot

Actual outcome

Expected outcome

using %matplotlib magic in jupyter notebook also produces the same error.
