[Python-modules-team] Bug#631554: Bug#631554: ipython pylab file save fails with "couldn't create slave"

[Kuiper, Thomas (3266)]

Hi Sandro,

I'm running Debian squeeze and I don't know what happens to the package management if I do that.  However, my daughter has matplotlib 1.1 and it does not have the problem.

Thanks

Tom
