With a backend configured to be TkAgg, I get the following error on
startup, i.e. on doing ...
$ python

Can anybody tell me what have I forgotten?
I have the following RPMs installed
agg-2.4-15.3
quagga-0.98.5-17.5
python-matplotlib-0.87.7-0.pm.1
python-qt-3.5.1-19
python-opengl-2.0.1.09-20
python-doc-pdf-2.4.2-16
python-numeric-24.2-14
python-tk-2.4.2-18
python-openssl-0.6-17
libxml2-python-2.6.23-15
python-logilab-common-0.13.0-14
python-cairo-1.0.2-14
pythoncad-DS1_R27-15
python-numpy-1.0.1-0.pm.1
python-2.4.2-18
python-elementtree-1.2.6-18
python-imaging-1.1.5-17
python-idle-2.4.2-18
python-urlgrabber-2.9.7-15
python-gdbm-2.4.2-18
python-pyx-0.8.1-14
python-gtk-2.8.2-21
kdebindings3-python-3.5.1-19
rpm-python-4.4.2-40
subversion-python-1.3.0-20
By the way, I can reset the backend to 'Agg' and do
from pylab import *
t = arange(10)
plot(t, t * t)
savefig('example.png')
and this works.
Thanks - Damian
