Re: [Matplotlib-users] Error with bar charts

[Suresh P. <sto...@ya...>]

Yes, both are mandriva packages:

python-matplotlib-0.87.4-2mdv2007.0
python-numarray-1.5.2-1mdv2007.0

Given there isnt a python-numpy package for x64-64 right now (there is a 
devel one, so not sure why no main package), I will go ahead and try to 
build from scratch.

Thanks,
Suresh
