Public bug reported:
[python-matplotlib version 1.1.1-1]
Some of the examples posted on the matplotlib website fail because they can't
find the example data.
In python the examples.directory variable mistakenly includes /etc' '.
mark@Obsidian:~$ python
Python 2.7.3 (default, Sep 26 2012, 21:51:14)
[GCC 4.7.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from matplotlib import rcParams
>>> rcParams['examples.directory']
"/etc/'/usr/share/matplotlib/sampledata'"
that is strange however because it's not set up that way in the global
configuration file
mark@Obsidian:~$ tail -2 /etc/matplotlibrc
examples.download : False # False to bypass downloading mechanism
examples.directory : '/usr/share/matplotlib/sampledata' # absolute directory
to look in if download is false
I don't understand that much about python at the moment so I can't
diagnose this any further, but there you have it.
