Package: python-matplotlib
Version: 2.1.1-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Version > 2.0 of the package does not include the necessary .so files for
the Gtk2 backend.
Attempting to use the Gtk2 backend with the following:
matplotlib.use('GtkAgg')
Results in the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/tmp/plot.py", line 23, in <module>

from matplotlib.backends._backend_gdk import pixbuf_get_pixels_array
ImportError: No module named _backend_gdk
Users should note however that the Gtk3 backend works and can be used with:
matplotlib.use('Gtk3Agg')
Thanks!
