Thank you for the prompt response. I cannot run matplotlib directly. It crashes as I tried to import matplotlib.pyplot:
sphinx/sampledoc> python Python 2.6 (r26:66714, Dec 3 2008, 10:55:18) [GCC 4.3.2 [gcc-4_3-branch revision 141291]] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt Segmentation fault (core dumped) What do you mean by the Agg backend? I did run sphinx-build inside gdb as you suggested. The attached file is the captured output. Thanks!
