[matplotlib-devel] RuntimeError: Could not open facefile
Hello, I am getting this runtime error for some of my plotting scripts ever since I did a clean build and install of matplotlib from the svn repo: [snip] File "/home/bvr/Programs/matplotlib/matplotlib/lib/matplotlib/text.py", line 524, in draw bbox, info = self._get_layout(renderer) File "/home/bvr/Programs/matplotlib/matplotlib/lib/matplotlib/text.py", line 298, in _get_layout ismath=False) File "/home/bvr/Programs/matplotlib/matplotlib/lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_gdk.py", line 309, in get_text_width_height_descent layout, inkRect, logicalRect = self._get_pango_layout(s, prop) File "/home/bvr/Programs/matplotlib/matplotlib/lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_gdk.py", line 283, in _get_pango_layout font_str = '%s, %s %i' % (prop.get_name(), prop.get_style(), size,) File "/home/bvr/Programs/matplotlib/matplotlib/lib/matplotlib/font_manager.py", line 742, in get_name return ft2font.FT2Font(str(findfont(self))).family_name RuntimeError: Could not open facefile /home/bvr/Programs/matplotlib/lib/matplotlib/mpl-data/fonts/ttf/Vera.ttf; Cannot_Open_Resource The file exists, and is certainly read-able. The program "Fonty Python" even checked and said that the fonts in that folder were valid, and displayed samples. Looking back at discussion threads before, this error has come up before back in 2007: http://www.mail-archive.com/matplotlib-us...@lists.sourceforge.net/msg05229.html Any thoughts?

Re: [matplotlib-devel] RuntimeError: Could not open facefile
Yes! Thank you! As extra debugging info, the issue was happening regardless of me choosing GTK, GTKAgg, and others for backends.
