Hi,

I'm a matplotlib developer and I will posit a guess about what is going
on.  matplotlib optionally installs pytz and datetuil if it is not found
on the system at install time.  You can override the default behavior by
copying the file setup.cfg.template to setup.cfg and editing it to turn
off the pytz and dateutil installs::

  ## Date/timezone support:
  pytz = False
  dateutil = False

It looks like perhaps you are getting the ubuntu datetutil and the
matplotlib datetuil, but this is just a guess.  The ubuntu packager will
probably want to rely on the upstream pytz and datetutil, and turn off
matplotlib's install by modifying setup.cfg as described above.
