[Matplotlib-users] font problem on Mac OS X with GUI

[Michael O. <mic...@tu...>]

I have just installed the latest CVS version of matplotlib. The EPS/PS=20=

backend works
well with latex commands and also the png backend, but the GUI does not=20=

work anymore.
When I ran any of the examples in the examples directory I get the=20
message

** (simple_plot.py:5668): WARNING **: Cannot open font file for font=20
Verdana 10

** (simple_plot.py:5668): WARNING **: Cannot open fallback font,=20
nothing to do

and python terminates. I have set the TTFPATH environment variable and=20=

I have
added the correct font path in font_manager.py which didn't help.
After severe problems with the gtk and pygtk installation via fink I=20
decided to do a manual
installation by hand and everything compiled without any problems.

Thanks in advance for any help
