RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Eric Sandeen 2011-03-02 22:57:31 UTC
Description of problem:

# seekwatcher
/usr/lib64/python2.6/site-packages/matplotlib/rcsetup.py:117: UserWarning: rcParams key "numerix" is obsolete and has no effect;
 please delete it from your matplotlibrc file
  warnings.warn('rcParams key "numerix" is obsolete and has no effect;\n'
...

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

seekwatcher-0.12-4.1.el6.noarch


How reproducible:

every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. run seekwatcher
  

Additional info:

There is no functional problem, but it looks sloppy.

I think we can just drop the offending line from seekwatcher.

built & tagged in seekwatcher-0.12-5.el6

Comment 4 Matthew Boyle 2011-07-04 13:27:59 UTC
this is now appearing as a fatal error in Fedora 14 (though the offending line still seems to be in the Rawhide package).

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/seekwatcher", line 755, in <module>
    rcParams['numerix'] = 'numpy'
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/matplotlib/__init__.py", line 652, in __setitem__
    See rcParams.keys() for a list of valid parameters.' % (key,))
KeyError: 'numerix is not a valid rc parameter.See rcParams.keys() for a list of valid parameters.'

removing the line fixes the problem.

Matthew, thanks - I've cloned this to bug #719062 for Fedora and built the packages; they should work their way through soon.
