[EMAIL PROTECTED] is perfectly valid and works fine with Python 2.5.2 on my machine, so it would appear it's not a Python shortcoming.
I suspect this is related to these lines: Saber Mbarek wrote: > locale: Cannot set LC_CTYPE to default locale: No such file or directory > locale: Cannot set LC_MESSAGES to default locale: No such file or > directory > locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory This (usually) indicates that the definitions for the locale you've specified are not installed. If you do "locale -a" is [EMAIL PROTECTED] listed? If not, it's possible you're missing a package. But this is looking like a system configuration error, not a matplotlib one. You may also get some clues from this Python bug: http://bugs.python.org/issue1443504 Hope that at least helps. Sorry I can't suggest anything else -- I've never actually seen this myself, but then I work in a little English-speaking, U.S.-centric ignorance bubble ;) Mike > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge > Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes > Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world > http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > _______________________________________________ > Matplotlib-users mailing list > Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users > -- Michael Droettboom Science Software Branch Operations and Engineering Division Space Telescope Science Institute Operated by AURA for NASA ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Matplotlib-users mailing list Matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-users
