Thanks for the reply,

It was not a problem with the specific python I used.

In fact I have a problem because the Tcl/Tk libraries were in /usr/share/lib
whereas their include files were in /usr/include. In my case, I used the
debian package tkx8.3-dev which does not follow that idiom ( I don't know
why..)
As far as I understand, matplotlib asks Python for the path of its Tk
library, and guess the path of the include directory from this path by
adding '../../include/tk' + tk_ver.

I solved my problem by removing this old version of Tk and building a new
one.
But I still think matplotlib should look in the directories given at the top
of setupext.py (or in the setup.cfg file, which would be even better, I
don't like the fact of having to modify directly setupext.py).

Regards,
