Re: [Matplotlib-users] Seg fault with 0.85cvs on ubuntu Breezy

Ryan,

I'm afraid there isn't a Debian package for Python2.4+wxPython2.6, so I can't 
test that combination.  Our best bet is to go for the GDB stack trace, like so:

	1. Write an iPython script that reproduces the segfault:
		$ ipython <test-script>
		<snip>
		Segmentation fault
	2. Find out where Python lives:
		$ which python
		/usr/bin/python
	2. Find out where iPython lives:
		$ which ipython
		/usr/bin/ipython
	3. Launch gdb:
		$ gdb <path-to-python>
		<snip>
		(gdb) run <path-to-ipython> <test-script>
	4. Get the backtrack:
		Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
		<snip>
		(gdb) bt
		#0 ...
		#1 ...
		<snip>
		#N ...

Please email me everything that is printed by the "bt" command.  You'll 
probably have to copy and paste several screens of backtrace.  Thanks!
