matplotlib .show() not showing graph on pi python3x

[gandar]

I am using matplotlib on my pi and using the .use('Agg').

I can get it to save a png of the graph but I would like to see the graph populate on the screen usin .show()


Any ideas why this wouldn't be working? Display issues on arm system?

Has anyone here used matplotlib on python 3x with the pi?

I imagine not, as the version of matplotlib in the repository seems to be "1.1.1~rc2-1" and python3 support only came about with version 1.2. Version 1.4 has been released today, by the way. (Support for Python 3.4 requires matplotlib 1.4!)

Now how can we get version 1.4 available for Raspbian Wheezy? How might I help?

Raspbian Wheezy has the same version of matplotlib as upstream Debian Wheezy https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/python-matplotlib

Only Jessie has a newer version https://packages.debian.org/jessie/python-matplotlib (so I assume that'll be the version in Raspbian Jessie too).
