I'm having a weird problem, I think with the test framework. I have a clean build of 2.10.1, and clone a new branch. In this branch, I can do ./sage -t devel/sage/sage/rings/arith.py, and all tests pass. Now I edit that file arith.py. At line 874, I change sage: random_prime(10)

I think the issue was that I was running on a system which had a relocated sage v2.9.3 prior to a relocated sage v2.10.1 (current version) and the location of the matplotlibrc file changed between the two sage version. All I did was remove the ~/.matplotlib and the ~/.sage directories and now plot
