A second update; just after filing my last report, I got pylab to import
cleanly from the versions in testing by manually installing four
packages: python-cairo python-gtk-1.2 python-gtk2 python-gtk2-dev. I was
surprised to see that python-cairo wasn't installed as a dependency
along with python-matplotlib!
So to summarize, here's how to get matplotlib at least beginning to work
on a Debian testing system:
install python-matplotlib
install python-cairo python-gtk-1.2 python-gtk2 python-gtk2-dev
add the following line to ~/.matplotlib/matplotlibrc:
numerix : Numeric
