Package: python-matplotlib
Version: 0.87.7-0.3
Severity: important
When generating simple line plots (using the plot() function) that
contain on the order of 10^5 points, all of the resulting plots (using
either PS or agg renderer to an EPS file) have a serious (more than 10%)
under scaling of all points.
This means that a plot with 50*10^5 points will have all points drawn
between zero and the 40*10^5 tick mark. No points are drawn beyond the
40*10^5 tick mark.
I will try rendering to PNG image to see if I can reproduce, but this is
still a major problem for EPS rendering.

Let's hope then that these changes have fixed this bug too.

Good, I'm closing it now, thanks.

Of course you're welcome :) Upstream authors are working really hard
on this project, so I'm sure that if you'll be able to spot this (or
any other) bug again, we'll find soon a solution.

I've updated your email in the bug report (the top of this email).
