Public bug reported: Binary package hint: python-matplotlib
In Hardy, apt-get install python-matlibplot. Then type: python -c "import pylab" You get the result: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pylab.py", line 1, in <module> from matplotlib.pylab import * File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/pylab.py", line 292, in <module> from matplotlib.pyplot import * File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/pyplot.py", line 37, in <module> new_figure_manager, draw_if_interactive, show = pylab_setup() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/__init__.py", line 24, in pylab_setup globals(),locals(),[backend_name]) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_gtkagg.py", line 10, in <module> from matplotlib.backends.backend_gtk import gtk, FigureManagerGTK, FigureCanvasGTK,\ File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_gtk.py", line 7, in <module> import gtk; gdk = gtk.gdk ImportError: No module named gtk To fix the problem, you need to apt-get install python-gtk2. You can then import pylab successfully. ** Affects: matplotlib (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Missing python-gtk2 dependency https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/223067 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
