Hi everybody, just now I noticed that I was still running the old SVN version of matplotlib and not the most recent one from git. Apparently the files installed to (in my case) /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/matplotlib from SVN with "python setup.py install" took precedence over the installation with "python setupegg.py develop". I therefore suggest to modify http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/faq/installing_faq.html#install-from-git by replacing
"If you want to be able to follow the development branch as it changes just replace the last step with (make sure you have setuptools installed):" with "If you want to be able to follow the development branch as it changes just uninstall any existing copy of matplotlib and replace the last step with (make sure you have setuptools installed):" Best wishes, Dieter ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EditLive Enterprise is the world's most technically advanced content authoring tool.
