Subject: python-ase: Exporting png image file fails Package: python-ase Version: 3.12.0-2 Tags: patch Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer, Attempting to save a png file results in a fatal exception due to an incompatibility between the ASE code and a call to the matplotlib routine actually responsible for saving the image file. This bug has been fixed upstream and in testing, but a patch needs to be applied to the version in stable. To correct the bug, line 39 in ase/io/png.py should be changed from < except TypeError: to > except (TypeError, ValueError): The image quality is very bad, but that's a separate issue I haven't looked into. It may be fixed upstream as well.
