Python matplotlib - ImportError: No module named functools_lru_cache

I have installed matplotlib for Python using pip which was completed without error. Yet I get this error when I try to import it:



import matplotlib
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/home/rishabh/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/__init__.py", line 131, in <module>
