matplotlib-devel Mailing List for matplotlib

Hello,
I produced a set of alternative Debian packages for matplotlib
version 0.63.4. These are based on Vittorio Palmisano's packages,
but include the following changes:
 * I fixed the dependencies and build-dependencies. The package
 should now build fine on build-daemons and such.
 * I only build the gtkagg backend, to keep the list of dependencies
 slim.
 * I made the package build without an X-server connection.
 * The package does no longer install duplicates of the Vera* TTF
 font files but uses the ones from ttf-bitstream-vera instead.
 This reduces the binary package size by several 100kb.
 * The example scripts in the -doc package are executable.
You can find my packages on my homepage at
 http://seehuhn.de/debian/
Comments and suggestions are very welcome.
Vittorio: fell free to incorporate all these changes into your
packages as you see fit.
All the best,
Jochen

John,
Everything you write concurs with my experience with CVS, including 
that on SourceForge. IIRC, you may be able to create a new top-level 
CVS directory in the /cvsroot/matplotlib repository without a support 
request, but it's been a long time.
