error in examples/contour_image.py ?

Hi, I am running on RHEL 3, Python 2.4.2, numarray 1.5.1, matplotlib 0.8.7.

I tried running the example contour_image.py (which works fine on my MacOS X.3.9
installation from fink), but I get these error messages:

    > python contour_image.py
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "contour_image.py", line 45, in ?
        cset2 = contour(X, Y, Z, cset1.levels, colors = 'k', hold='on')
      File "/opt/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/pylab.py",
line 1856, in contour
        ret = gca().contour(*args, **kwargs)
      File "/opt/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/axes.py", line

        return ContourSet(self, *args, **kwargs)

        self.changed()
      File "/opt/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/contour.py",
line 474, in changed
        tcolors = [ (tuple(rgba),) for rgba in self.to_rgba(self.cvalues)]
      File "/opt/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/cm.py", line
52, in to_rgba
        if len(x.shape)>2: return x
      AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'shape'

In fact, all the countour demo scripts give this error.

Seems odd that x is of the wrong class/type.

Any clues?

Cheers,
  Dave

David,

You ran into a bug I introduced while trying to fix another bug; a bugfix release is planned *very* soon.

In the meantime, I was able to fix it by changing the
offending line in cm.py. Context diff attached.

Cheers,
Dave
