I would encourage anyone running linux to simply build matplotlib from the latest release tarball. It's easy. You may need to install some devel packages first, but once you have stumbled over the missing bits and installed them, then forever after you can very easily update to the latest version whenever there is a release. Matplotlib changes fast enough that this can be quite a help.
