I suspect there is an .afm font file on your new system that is untested
with matplotlib and exhibiting something new.
I would first try to track down which font file it is, and then send it
to me off list and I'll have a look at what might be tripping up matplotlib.
Cheers,
Mike

I upgraded my notebook to Slackware-12.0 (which includes python-2.5) and
discovered that the application I'm developing no longer ran. Turns out that
matplotlib went missing during the upgrade.
So, I just built matplotlib-0.91.2 using the same matplotlib.Slackbuild
script I used on my workstation/server, but this time it failed. The font
manager seems to be the issue; the error message repeatedly is: Found an
unknown keyword in AFM header (was Underline). Specifically, the error is
in File /usr/lib/Python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/afm.py, line 166, in
_parse_char_metrics
name=vals[2].split()[1]
IndexError: List index out of range
Is this unique to me? What do I do to fix the problem?
TIA,
Rich
