Agree about python-matplotlib but it has several gui backends and distributions are free to link python-matplotlib to some/most/all of them. I think its not a good idea to link SugarPlatform to qt/wx/tk. Anyway distros are free to add it to SP package - for example SoaS (moreover it seems that matplotlib package from fedora requires only gtk backend) -- Aleksey _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
