[Python-modules-team] Bug#502976: severity

[Michael Gilbert]

severity grave 502976
thank you

the whole point of the matplotlib package is to provide the user a
means to make plots, hence the lack of this ability is a very
significant regression.  i have raised the severity to
release-critical since this must be fixed for lenny.  i don't want to
wait a year and a half (until etch+1) to use this package in a
production environment.
