[Python-modules-team] Bug#680883: python-matplotlib: Editing curve properties not possible using Qt4Agg backend (corrected upstream)

[Yannick Roehlly]

Package: python-matplotlib
Version: 1.1.1~rc2-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Hi,

Using Qt4Agg backend, it is not possible to use the button to edit curve
properties on the window displaying a plot.  This has been reported as
upstream bug #917 [1] and as been corrected by commit a180e1d [2].

I've applied the patch locally (hence de debsum mismatch below) and it 
actually corrects the problem.

Regards,

Yannick
