Public bug reported:
Currently there's this in the ubuntu oneiric package:
amirbar[matplotlib-1.0.1.egg-info]> pwd
/usr/share/pyshared/matplotlib-1.0.1.egg-info
amirbar[matplotlib-1.0.1.egg-info]> cat entry_points.txt
[nose.plugins]
KnownFailure = matplotlib.testing.noseclasses:KnownFailure
this causes no end of trouble, such as the IPython test suite failing.
Please don't register this as a global nose plugin, it's really meant
only for matplotlib use. In fact it was copied from numpy. We'll work
in mpl to hide it further and only expose our copy if we can't find the
numpy one, but the ubuntu package should NOT expose this as a global
nose plugin AT ALL.
