Hello All,

   I'am sorry, for resenting this email, but I had some problems with my
e-mail client, and (probably) lost the response (if there was any)
before I could read it. The archive of matplotlib-users list are messed
up, because the last post there is from 2006-10-02, and it prevent's me
from check if there was any answer to my post.
Please resent to me the answer (if any was given). The original message
is given below, and the traceback from zope below the mail. Thanks in
advance.

Greetings,
Marek Szczypinski

Subject: matplotlib and zope problem

Hello All,

  I've been using matplotlib for some time now, and I want to connect it
with zope. I'am using the example code from page:
http://www.scipy.org/Cookbook/Matplotlib/Matplotlib_and_Zope ,
but whenever I try to import matplotlib, and/or pylab packages i get
this error from zope:

Error Type: RuntimeError
Error Value: '/' is not a writable dir; you must set environment
variable HOME to be a writable dir

Have You got any ideas, on what might go wrong? I'am using matplotlib
0.87.4, and zope 2.9.5 with python 2.4.3 on gentoo linux box.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Marek Szczypinski
