I am trying to run matplotlib on an SL6 machine

I installed ok with

yum install numpy python-matplotlib ipython sympy python-nose

However

When running matplotlib, I receive errors

/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_gtk.py:621:
DeprecationWarning: Use the new widget gtk.Tooltip
   self.tooltips = gtk.Tooltips()

I found

run

yum-builddep python-matplotlib

with no problems

Not sure what you are trying to do here.

When I try to run

yum install matplotlib

I get
No package matplotlib available.

So I must be looking in the wrong places for matplotlib

No, it's called "python-matplotlib" and you have it. Although there may be alternative locations to get newer versions.

So it would appear I am short of Numpy version 1.5,

Any help to resolve this would be much appreciated

This is an upstream issue.  I would suggest filing a bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Red%20Hat%20Enterprise%20Linux%206

either against python-matplotlib or numpy.
