[Matplotlib-users] sensible tick labels for log scale?

I'm wondering if there is a way of automating tick labeling on log-scale axes, so that labels do not overlap. Specifically, when the values get large, they overlap which makes the labels unreadable. I would expect them to automatically get more sparse with the axis value, as they do when you

[Matplotlib-users] inconsistent spacing in histograms

I notice that when the number of bins in a histogram is sparse, the spacing between the bins can be irregular. For example: http://cl.ly/7e0ad7039873d5446365 http://cl.ly/c7cb20b567722928ac3c Is there a way of normalizing this, and better, can the default behavior result in something more

OK, I managed to build with the setupext.py list empty as you specified. However, for some reason, the resulting matplotlib egg *still* looks for dynamic libraries in /usr/local: ImportError: dlopen(/Library/Python/2.5/site-packages/
