Hi all, I just added the stinkbug.png file to the sample_data repo so the Image tutorial and other examples using this image could be run by users making cbook.get_sample_data calls. But while it works fine with a reasonably recent MPL, I tested with the system one in Ubuntu 11.10, and it does not find the file. The reason is simply that this version of mpl still had the old SVN sample_data repo URL: baseurl = 'http://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/trunk/sample_data/' So the problem is that any users of 11.10 are now stuck with a 'frozen in time' sample_data repo. We can fix this easily by simply pushing over to sample_data an update with any new files in the github one. Since that repo changes fairly slowly and the changes typically involve just putting new files in and no actual code, it should be fairly easy to do manually. What do folks think? If you agree, I'm happy to push an update now (I'm assuming the SVN repo is still writable, which might not be the case...). Cheers, f

I can't think of any problem it would create. (But I don't know whether the repo is writable.) Eric > > Cheers, > > f >

In case anyone else wants to give it a try, I tarred the svn directory and put it up here: http://fperez.org/tmp/sample_data_svn.tgz I've already done the add steps, so all you should need to do is: wget http://fperez.org/tmp/sample_data_svn.tgz tar xzf sample_data_svn.tgz cd sample_data_svn svn commit -m"Sync SVN repo with contents in current git repo" If one of you wants to try pasting the above four lines into a terminal, let me know if it works for you. Cheers, f

OK, thanks for trying. Next week we can see if John can reopen it for this. I think there's no danger of anyone mistakenly committing any real work there anymore. Cheers, f

Give it a try and let me know if you have any problems. Thanks, JDH

I did enable the same old fer_perez sf account you've always had. I was just referring to you by your email moniker in the post above. If it's still not working, I'll see if there is some other setting that needs tweaking. >

OK, it worked now. I was using before an auto-generated password that
was OK for web login but had funny quote characters that were
confusing the svn login (probably being escaped by the shell). I
changed that to a more normal password, and now I was able to push.
Sorry for the confusion, and thanks!
Doing these updates should be easy and infrequent enough that I'm
happy to push them by hand when needed, just ping me.
Checked and the system mpl on ubuntu 11.10 can now fetch stinkbug correctly:
In [3]: matplotlib.__version__
Out[3]: '1.0.1'
In [4]: cbook.get_sample_data('stinkbug.png')
Out[4]: <open file
'/home/fperez/.matplotlib/sample_data/stinkbug.png', mode 'rb' at
0x2860b70>
Cheers,
