[Paraview] pvpython and matplotlib

[Adriano Gagliardi]

Dear All,

I am having issues getting matplotlib to work with a in-house compiled
version of pvpython. Although it imports fine, if I try to plot anything
using pyplot I exit with a segmentation fault. Likewise, when I exit
pvpython, I get a segmentation fault. However, when using matplotlib from
the standard release of Python, it all works fine. Other libraries like
mysql and numpy are working fine too. This is what I'm running:

import matplotlib.pyplot as mp
#import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
mp.plot([1,2,3])
mp.show()

Any suggestions what could be wrong or how to go about solving it? I've
noticed the -v/-vv flags don't work with pvpython, or -h for that matter.
I'm at least finding the point at which I get the segmentation fault, but I
can't make head nor tail of it:

(Pdb) s
> /usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/transforms.py(286)zero()
-> def zero(): return Value(0)
(Pdb) s
--Return--
>
/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/matplotlib/transforms.py(286)zero()-><Bin
Op o...1ce469a8> <--- it gives a segmentation fault before this line
-> def zero(): return Value(0)

All suggestions greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Adriano
