Re: python matplotlib debian package

[Carlo Segre <segre@iit.edu>]

Dear Andrea:

The matplotlib packages have somewhat broken dependencies.  This is what 
you get with unofficial packages.  I have a complete set of working 
versions for sarge in my repository.  Since they don't have complete 
dependencies, I had to install them by hand.  In my recollection, you need
	libcairo1
	libpixman1
	python-gd
in addition to the python-matplotlib and python-matplotlib-data files.

The repository is

deb http://debian.phys.iit.edu/debian sarge main contrib non-free

I am working on getting a working set of packages for sid and I will be 
happy to send you an email about it when they are ready.

Carlo
