 I did not do this in the python-2.5.4.spkg update since we have for now
 disabled support of TkAgg in MPL since it caused exceptions in the
 plotting code on systems where no X was installed and/or not running. We
 can resolve this problem in two ways:

  * conditionally reenable TkAgg support in MPL
  * fix the issue in MPL or at least catch the exception and just ignore it

 Anyway, I am attaching a patch on top of the python-2.5.4.spkg that can be
 used as the basis to make this happen on OSX once we sorted out the TkAgg
 issue.

 Bumping to 3.4.1.

 Cheers,

 Michael
