Hi all, I just added the stinkbug.png file to the sample_data repo so the Image tutorial and other examples using this image could be run by users making cbook.get_sample_data calls. But while it works fine with a reasonably recent MPL, I tested with the system one in Ubuntu 11.10, and it does not find the file. The reason is simply that this version of mpl still had the old SVN sample_data repo URL:
baseurl = 'http://matplotlib.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/matplotlib/trunk/sample_data/' So the problem is that any users of 11.10 are now stuck with a 'frozen in time' sample_data repo. We can fix this easily by simply pushing over to sample_data an update with any new files in the github one. Since that repo changes fairly slowly and the changes typically involve just putting new files in and no actual code, it should be fairly easy to do manually. What do folks think? If you agree, I'm happy to push an update now (I'm assuming the SVN repo is still writable, which might not be the case...).
