Hello:
I am getting an identical error to the error encountered by Charlie Moad
(posted Apr 10, 2006; 08:46am).  I am running Python 2.4.4 (#71, Oct 18
2006, 08:34:43) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on win32 with Matplotlib v
0.87.7.  my system is:

XP home, SP2 on a Dell XPS600, Dual Core P4 3.40GHz, 1 GB RAM

the error thread is exactly the same:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\matplotlib\texmanager.py", line 58,
in get_dvipng_version
    raise RuntimeError('Could not obtain dvipng version')
RuntimeError: Could not obtain dvipng version

I saw in the message thread that a fix was committed, is this universal?

many thanks,
bernard
