Created attachment 702802 [details]
show() backtrace

Description of problem:

python3-matplotlib has a missing dependency (that I was unable to find) causing a crash in tk backend when show() is called. 

 
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
python3-matplotlib-1.2.0-8.fc18.x86_64


How reproducible:

always

Steps to Reproduce:
$ python3
> from pylab import *
> plot([0,10])
> show()


Actual results:

Exception in Tkinter callback
last line is "TypeError: can't use a string pattern on a bytes-like object"
looks like font related (?)
figure window shows but its empty.


Expected results:
show plot



Additional info:

Comment 1 Sinan H 2013-02-27 16:46:34 UTC
Removed python3-matplotlib rpm and installed from src, 1.2.0, same version.
It works as expected (both Tkinter and Qt4 backends, see bug #915727 ) so I'm quite confident that the problem is not from upstream.
