It is explained in the documentation files included in the package:
/usr/share/doc/python-matplotlib/NEWS.Debian.gz
/usr/share/doc/python-matplotlib/README.Debian
We set the default to tk, but given the depend line is:
python-tk | python-gtk2 | python-wxgtk2.8 | python-qt3 | python-qt4
if any other binding is present, python-tk is not installed (there is
no easy/elegant solution to this, and we have discuss a lot about it
before implementing it), and so you'll be facing the problem you
described.
Solutions are:
- install python-tk
- configure matplotlib (either via /etc/matplotlibrc or in
~/.matplotlib) to use the backend for the bindings you have installed
(I'd say GtkAGG, from the package you have installed).
That said, I close this report
