I can't reproduce this bug on my own machine with SVN head. I suspect
this is freetype2 related -- that's the library that actually performs
the rendering of the characters for the Agg backend. The fact the
humufr saw this after upgrading to Gutsy suggests there might have been
change to freetype that is now revealing possibly an incorrect usage
in matplotlib. Can you please send the version of freetype you are
using? (pkg-config --modversion freetype2)
My machine has the (fairly old) 2.1.9.
I'm going to try installing the latest freetype and see if I can
reproduce this bug.
[I believe this is an instance of the same bug that Darren sent me
off-list.]
Cheers,
Mike
