I think a variant of this bug is still outstanding in python-matplotlib 0.90.1-2
I have selected numerix: numpy in my matplotlibrc. When I try to import pylab after installing python-matplotlib, I get the error The import of the numpy version of the nxutils module, _nsnxutils, failed. This is is either because numpy was unavailable when matplotlib was compiled, because a dependency of _nsnxutils could not be satisfied, or because the build flag for this module was turned off in setup.py. If it appears that _nsnxutils was not built, make sure you have a working copy of numpy and then re-install matplotlib. Otherwise, the following traceback gives more details: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pylab.py", line 1, in ? from matplotlib.pylab import * File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/pylab.py", line 201, in ? import mlab #so I can override hist, psd, etc... File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/mlab.py", line 64, in ? import nxutils File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/nxutils.py", line 17, in ? from matplotlib._ns_nxutils import * ImportError: No module named _ns_nxutils Searching through the indicated site packages (before and after manually compiling matplotlib) indicates that several files are missing, particularly _ns_nxutils.so.
