        ..it seems I spoken to early :)

        Compiling the source pkgs from http://anakonda.altervista.org/
        results in packages that works only using the GTKagg backend. If
        I try to run the scripts from inside a python shell, I only
        obtain segmentation faluts.

        If someone want to test the packages buit on debian unstable,
        they are at:

        http://people.debian.org/~zufus

        They are divided in subfolders:

        matplotlib
        python-gd
        python-pypaint

        I don't think those packages are good to be uploaded until this
        issue it is not resolved.

        Ciao Ciao

        Marco
