Hi,
I just started running PyGTK 2.16 and noticed the following everytime
I run a matplotlib script:
/home/rmay/.local/lib/python2.6/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_gtk.py:621:
DeprecationWarning: Use the new widget gtk.Tooltip
self.tooltips = gtk.Tooltips()
Right now, we support >= PyGTK 2.2. The new, non-deperecated API
(gtk.Tooltip) was added in 2.12 (and the gtk.Tooltips API was
deprecated at this time). So, my question is how do we want to handle
this? Do we want to create a helper method that hides the logic to
determine what method to use (there doesn't look to be an easy way to
support both)? Or do we just bump our required version? 2.12.0 was
released in fall 2007. I'm not sure what versions are supplied with
the various distros.
Thoughts?

My sense is that RHEL4 is still common, and will be supported by RH through early 2012 (Red Hat Enterprise Linux Life Cycle - Red Hat Customer Portal). It is way back at pygtk 2.4.
I just now committed to svn a little bit of conditional code to support the new api along with the old one. Minimal testing on my system (new api) looks OK; more testing with new API, and testing with pygtk < 2.12, are needed. The changes are extremely simple, but I might have overlooked something.

Ok. I got my number from our install docs:
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/users/installing.html#build-requirements
There it says PyGTK 2.2 as a (optional) build dependency.

Awesome, works great here, thanks.
