Hello everyone.
If I try to use LaTeX for text processing (i.e. text.usetex : True in my
matplotlibrc), I get a cryptic LaTeX error which didn't use to be there before.
I get the same problem when using matplotlib-0.98.5 which I compiled from
source, and matplotlib-1.0.0 from macports. My python version is 2.6.5 (from
macports) and I am running Mac OS X 10.6.4.
The error messages are pretty much the same no matter what I plot, and
everything works fine if text.usetex : False.
Regards
Paul.
