Hmm, this is odd a bit of an odd situation I guess. The dependency for python-matplotlib is:
python-gd (>= 0.52) | python-pypaint | python-gtk2 | python-wxgtk2.8 | python-qt3 | python-qt4 Basically just saying you need *one* of the possible backends. However, the default matplotlibrc (/etc/maplotlibrc) has: backend : GTKAgg so technically we should probably change the dependency to: python-gtk2 | python-gd (>= 0.52) | python-wxgtk2.8 | python-qt3 | python-qt4 we can also drop the python-pypaint dependency as there is no such package in Debian or Ubuntu. However, the default Ubuntu install does include python-gtk so I imagine the only time you'd run into the bug would be on a server install. Is that the case for you Mark? ** Changed in: matplotlib (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist Status: New => Triaged -- 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
