Package: python-gnuplot
Version: 1.7-4
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

In python-gnuplot generated plot windows the mouse doesn't work (e.g., can not
rotate splots).  The author of the following post has found the problem in an
earlier version of Gnuplot.py, and has documented the fix/workaround in this
post:
  http://www.scipy.net/pipermail/ipython-user/2004-April/000282.html

After applying the said fix (which I attach as a convenient patch), I get back
full mouse functionality.
