John, in svn HEAD r6036 fixed this problem, which seems to need a newer numpy version, (PyArray_SimpleNewFromData does not use the same conversion code for the dimensions as PyArray_FromDimsAndData uses)
The attached patch fixes this issue for me. Can someone confirm that this does not affect i386? We have to wait for bug 317208 and two more sync requests to be done before we can upload this change, as matpotlib currently FTBFS. ** Attachment added: "fix_backendgdb_pointers.patch" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21217636/fix_backendgdb_pointers.patch -- python-matplotlib: Exception when drawing image on 64-bit system https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295719 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
