Released Packages, all built from tar balls: ------------------------------------------------------ matplotlib-0.87.3 , ie, the current package .2 in Fedora extras fails, meaning I needed to chase down the matplotlib dependencies myself (eg tk.h in tk-devel) Numpy 0.9.8 (latest Fedora package is 0.9.5 which is too old) Scipy 0.4.9 And, at least as of now, svn check outs from the numpy, scipy, and matplotlib subversion repos also work together for Demo1.
