Comment 1 Volker Fröhlich 2016-03-27 12:01:24 UTC
This appears to be solved in 1.4.3-9 for Fedora 23. Later versions of Fedora seem to be fine too.

Comment 2 Joachim Frieben 2016-03-27 14:24:02 UTC
(In reply to Volker Fröhlich from comment #1)
To be more precise: texlive-dvipng is still a missing dependency of the subpackage python3-matplotlib of the actual component python-matplotlib in both Fedora 23 and Fedora 24. It is included, however, for the subpackage python(2)-matplotlib.
