Here is the starter list which I made from a redhat distro a couple of
years ago -- much of this is probably still accurate but should be
updated by distro and wiki-ized
* matplotlib core: zlib, zlib-devel, libpng, libpng-devel,
freetype, freetype-devel, freetype-utils
* gtk/gtkagg backend: gtk2-devel, gtk+-devel, pygtk2, glib-devel,
pygtk2-devel, gnome-libs-devel, pygtk2-libglade
* tk backend: tcl, tk, tkinter
* wx/wxagg backends - the wxpython rpms from wxpython
For example, I think the tcl/tk need to have some devel libs added.
