Thank you very much for your responses.

I installed Rolf's python-matplotlib-data and python-matplotlib-doc
packages and Benjamin's gutsy python-matplotlib. However, now I'm
getting the following errors when I try to run Matplotlib scripts:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ python really_simple.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "really_simple.py", line 1, in <module>

    defaultParams['datapath'][0] = _get_data_path()

_get_data_path
    raise RuntimeError('Could not find the matplotlib data files')
RuntimeError: Could not find the matplotlib data files

The script that I'm running is:

from pylab import *
plot([1,2,3])
savefig('test')

Does anyone see where the problem is?

Thanks.
