Public bug reported:

On a new clean 17.04 system with only standard packages installed, I
can't use GTKAgg or GTKCairo backends with Matplotlib any more. This
breaks my Python2 + GTK2 GUI, since I need to embed GTK-based plots.

Note clear why the problem is arising, but this following shows the
problem:

$ ipython
import matplotlib; matplotlib.use("GTKCairo"); import pylab; 
pylab.plot([1,2],[3,4]);pylab.show()
