v.0.99.1.1 DeprecationWarning: Use the new widget gtk.Tooltip() self.tooltips = gtk.Tooltips()

I am new to python and when using Matplotlib 0.99.1.1 [Scientific Linux
6.3, Python 2.6] to plot I get the following error:

/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_gtk.py:621: DeprecationWarning: Use the new widget gtk.Tooltip
  self.tooltips = gtk.Tooltips()

This is when the program reaches:

  plt.show()

Where plt is the matplotlib.pyplot. Prior to this point of the code I am
able to produce pdf files of the figure by using plt.savefig(fname).

Reading other online comments I have tried to update Matplotlib. First I
installed the dependences via

  sudo yum-builddep python-matplotlib

Then:

  sudo yum install matplotlib

This then tells me that I have the latest version of matplotlib and
therefore does nothing. There are more recent versions available from
the Matplotlib website. I tried to install the latest version after
unpacking the tar.gz file. After using the command:

  sudo python setup.py install

I get the message below ending with error:

  command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

Can anyone suggest a way to install the latest matplotlib or stop the
message I get with using plt.show()?

It looks like the version of Numpy installed on your machine is too old for the latest version of matplotlib. You'll need at least version 1.5, I believe (though we neglected to update the documentation about this requirement).
