[matplotlib-devel] when $HOME filesystem not writable
Hello,
I run my code from a batch system, from where the $HOME-filesystem is not
writable. In __init__.py in _get_home it finds ("~"), but then crashes
because it doesn't have access to it. I tried to set XDG_CONFIG_HOME and
MPLCONFIGDIR to circumvent this problem. But it still aborts. The only
solution I have found so far is to hack the code and replace ("~") by my
writable work-directory.
Is there any other way to tell it which directory to use - without having
to touch the actual code?
Thanks,
Elena

Re: [matplotlib-devel] when $HOME filesystem not writable
Tom,
I can use the current master branch. But in contrast to the issue on
Google App Engine, the computer I am working on can see the HOME-dir, so
it will set it. But then it has no read/write permissions on it (when
running as a batch job).
Thanks,
Elena
