[Python-modules-team] Bug#730703: python-matplotlib: Unable to create io-slave

[Tom Kuiper]

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

Dear Maintainer,

 have recently upgraded to Debian 7 and have Python Python 2.7.3 with
matplotlib 1.1.1~rc2-1.  When I click on the image save icon of the plotting
window I get:

kfilemodule(30646): couldn't create slave: "Unable to create io-slave:
klauncher said: Unknown protocol ''.

When I use the savefig command within my script there is no error.
