I just compiled all of these from source. I'm installing them on school Linux servers (most of them Fedora or RedHat I think), which means I don't have root permission, so I basically have to install everything under my home directory and hope that nothing conflicts....most things worked up until now. Matplotlib installed with no errors, but plotting attempts failed.
I'm a bit reluctant to go back to Python2.5, even though that would probably solve all my compatibility issues, but I have started using new syntax in Python2.6. When I first tried matplotlib with Python2.6 and it failed, I just went for gnuplot and it worked. But now I'm using networkx which means plotting graphs requires matplotlib.
