The source of that file has always been `matplotlibrc.template` at the 
root of the source tree.  That file is copied (by the build process) to 
lib/matplotlib/mpl-data/matplotlibrc, but it doesn't exist in the raw 
source tree.  I'm not sure what matplotlib.conf is or was -- but I hope 
matplotlibrc.template fits the bill for the Debian package's purposes.
