Hi Mike,
sorry, I forgot my platform in my last mail!
I am running Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS x86_64
Python: 2.6.5, Ubuntu
matplotlib: svn trunk, revision 8841
All other dependencies of matplotlib are installed as "normal" packages
of the distribution. Versions can be found here:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/python/
Would you like more information or should I run more tests?
Greetings,
Dieter
