Bump from this side...  Dav Clark just pointed this out to me:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/matplotlib/+bug/607395

and lo and behold, unfortunately for the upcoming maverick, Ubuntu
didn't update to mpl 1.0:

http://packages.ubuntu.com/hu/maverick/python-matplotlib

If an enterprising user who is knowledgeable in the ways of Debian
could contribute a patch for these data downloading calls to be
modified/disabled, it would be a great help.

It would be a shame to see mpl stuck at 0.99 for a long time just due to this...

Here's to hoping :)

Cheers,
