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:
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.
