Dear ALL, I just found the following error when trying to run a very simple test MPL/Basemap script under Ubuntu Linux Intrepid. This does *not* happen when not importing MPL pyplot (for example, in a wxPython embedded app).
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/maurobio/Projetos/Croizat/test/mexico.py", line 2, in <module> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib-0.98.5.1-py2.5-linux-i686.egg/matplotlib/pyplot.py", line 75, in <module> new_figure_manager, draw_if_interactive, show = pylab_setup() File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib-0.98.5.1-py2.5-linux-i686.egg/matplotlib/backends/__init__.py", line 25, in pylab_setup globals(),locals(),[backend_name]) File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib-0.98.5.1-py2.5-linux-i686.egg/matplotlib/backends/backend_gtkagg.py", line 10, in <module> from matplotlib.backends.backend_gtk import gtk, FigureManagerGTK, FigureCanvasGTK,\ File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib-0.98.5.1-py2.5-linux-i686.egg/matplotlib/backends/backend_gtk.py", line 25, in <module> from matplotlib.backends.backend_gdk import RendererGDK, FigureCanvasGDK File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib-0.98.5.1-py2.5-linux-i686.egg/matplotlib/backends/backend_gdk.py", line 29, in <module> from matplotlib.backends._backend_gdk import pixbuf_get_pixels_array ImportError: libffi.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Any hints???
