 Replying to [comment:21 jhpalmieri]:
 > By default, Sage's matplotlib should write to `.sage/matplotlib-1.3.1`.
 Do you have any environment variables set, like `MPLCONFIGDIR`? On my OS X
 machine, I just checked: `MPLCONFIGDIR` (which Sage sets to
 `.sage/matplotlib-1.3.1` if it's unset) still gets `fontList.cache` and
 `tex.cache/` added to it when you call `plot` from Sage. My `$HOME/.cache`
 directory only contains `fontconfig/`.

 Well, setting up MPL's config dir based on its version in `sage-env` in
 turn can indeed break upon relocation... :-)

 (as it calls Python before `sage-location` is called, and the Python
 interpreter may try to load libraries that have moved, as I already
 mentioned elsewhere).
