[matplotlib-devel] Bugs in rev 4336 mpl svn

[Rob H. <he...@ta...>]

Some recent changes (in the last few days) have caused my build to  
break.  Three things:

First of all, the line in setupext.py:  if version.version.endswith 
('mpl'):
fails.  I can comment this block out, and set the return of  
check_provide_traits(): to True, and things seem to work well.

Second, I get this error:

2007-11-16 16:53:25.881 Python[6935] *** _NSAutoreleaseNoPool():  
Object 0x18081c10 of class NSCarbonWindowContentView autoreleased  
with no pool in place - just leaking

when plotting text to the screen.  I am using mathtext with the Arev  
Sans fonts.

Third, keypress events seem to be broken.

I am using Mac OS 10.4 with the TkAgg backend.

I'm sorry that I'm only posting problems and not posting more fixes,  
but I don't have enough time right now to track these things down at  
the moment, and wanted to get the word out quickly.  Perhaps if there  
are still issues next week, I can check into these issues a bit more  
deeply.
