The matplotlib.use() function was always a no-op after importing pylab, and there were occasional questions about it on the mailing list. It was changed fairly recently to raise an error in this case. Bug #1855454 points out that this is not backward compatible: an application that calls use() too late didn't do anything before the change, but now gets stopped with a traceback. I suggest changing the error to a warning, which I think would still deliver the message but would be compatible with (broken) legacy code. What do you think?
