I think we should keep for now a pristine /etc/matplotlibrc and tell somehow it's depreciation. And then remove it in Forky. Or maybe convince upstream to look for /etc/matplotlibrc if it's there. (disclaimer: I do use these optional /etc/matplotlibrc , /etc/git... to provision system defaults, maybe other do so) 2. Yes, MPL should be fixed here. The idea to ask people to remove gedit to work around problem looks weird ;= -) Greetings Le sam. 12 avr. 2025 =C3=A0 09:39, Nilesh Patra a =C3= =A9crit : > > Hi Alex, James, all, > > Seems matplotlib migrated to testing now.
