Hi,
I installed the version of matplotlib currently in testing on stable. It
installed without requiring any upgrade of libc6 or gcc related stuff.

This looks incorrect, and in fact, importing pylab fails.

In [1]: import pylab
The import of the numeric version of the _transforms module,
_nc_transforms, failed. This is is either because numeric was
unavailable when matplotlib was compiled, because a dependency of
_nc_transforms could not be satisfied, or because the build flag for
this module was turned off in setup.py. If it appears that
_nc_transforms was not built, make sure you have a working copy of
numeric and then re-install matplotlib. Otherwise, the following
traceback gives more details:

Note the extra stuff in the latter.
I think there is some magic one can add so the system automatically adds
these dependencies at build time, but I'm not an expert at this stuff.
