It looks to me like you've got a locally installed version of matplotlib that is not allowing the package manager to properly install. If you have the matplotlib package removed you shouldn't have any matplotlib directory in: /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/ /usr/share/pyshared/ /usr/share/
Check that those don't exist and if you still have problems reopen this bug (set the Status to "New"). Thanks. ** Changed in: matplotlib (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- could not install python-matplotlib in intrepid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272813 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
