Hi I have an issue that's really driving me crazy. I reported this for various recent mpl versions and I really hope someone has any hint as to what might cause this: Some time ago I installed (Debian sarge) the mpl 0.82 .debs (by placing deb http://anakonda.altervista.org/debian packages/ in my /etc/apt/sources.list) . Now I wanted to make a "clean" install of the recent mpl (svn 0.87.1). So what I did was deinstalling the debs dpkg -l | grep matplotlib dpkg -P <all mpl packages> and then removing everything else left which is related to mpl: updatedb locate matplotlib rm -r <stuff> After that I installed 0.87.1 as usual (python setup.py build/install). Now testing my fresh install ipython -pylab plot([1,2,3]) xlabel("lala") I found the xlabel not centered but on the leftmost side of the axis. My current "workarround" is to install the 0.82 debs *first* and the recent version (from source) afterwards *without* deinstalling the 0.82 packages. If I do this the problem goes away!? Is 0.82 writing some (config) files that 0.87.1 should not read but does? Thanks for any hint. cheers, steve -- Random number generation is the art of producing pure gibberish as quickly as possible. |
