After some testing I found the solution to my problem: First I found that there were cases when it worked and others when it didn't work. Trying 'python -v examplescript.py 2> logfile' showed that in the nonworking case Numeric was loaded and in the other numpy.
In the end I found out that it wasn't working when I was in my homedir and there I had an ancient resource-file which prevented the sourcing of the one in /etc : -rw-r--r-- 1 gaubitzer gaubitzer 41 2004-07-13 17:12 /home/gaubitzer/matplotlibrc I don't remember if I intentionally created this file or if this was the resource file of some previous matplotlib version. The effect was that removing this file removed the problem. If someone else also has this file in the homedir please add it to this bug report to find out if the file is a relict of old versions.
