[Matplotlib-users] OSError when exporting figure in EPS

[massimo s. <mas...@un...>]

Hi,
I upgraded today to matplotlib 0.87.3, compiled from source.
I noticed the following error when in my application I try to export the 
plot in EPS format. The odd thing is that the export actually works and 
produces a good eps file, but nevertheless...

File "hooke.py", line 354, in ExportImage #that's my wxpython+MPL app
     self.figure.savefig(filename)
   File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/figure.py", line 
660, in savefig
     self.canvas.print_figure(*args, **kwargs)
   File 
"/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/backends/backend_ps.py", 
line 1123, in print_figure
     else: shutil.move(tmpfile, outfile)
   File "/usr/lib/python2.4/shutil.py", line 193, in move
     copy2(src,dst)
   File "/usr/lib/python2.4/shutil.py", line 93, in copy2
     copystat(src, dst)
   File "/usr/lib/python2.4/shutil.py", line 68, in copystat
     os.utime(dst, (st.st_atime, st.st_mtime))
OSError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: 'figura001.eps'

Thanks as usual!

Massimo
