Matplotlib - python does not find pylab

[Pau]

Hello,

I said Ihad tried with different versions of python

$ python2.5
Python 2.5.4 (r254:67916, Feb 26 2009, 18:20:08)
[GCC 3.3.5 (propolice)] on openbsd4
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import pylab
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pylab.py", line 1, in <module>
    from matplotlib.pylab import *
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/__init__.py",
line 129, in <module>
    from rcsetup import defaultParams, validate_backend, validate_toolbar
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/rcsetup.py",
line 19, in <module>
    from matplotlib.colors import is_color_like
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/colors.py",
line 54, in <module>
    import matplotlib.cbook as cbook
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/cbook.py",
line 17, in <module>
    preferredencoding = locale.getpreferredencoding()
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/locale.py", line 514, in getpreferredencoding
    setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "")
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/locale.py", line 478, in setlocale
    return _setlocale(category, locale)
locale.Error: unsupported locale setting

This is the output when using ksh with the default config file

And also:

>>> import sys
>>> print sys.path
['', '/usr/local/lib/python25.zip', '/usr/local/lib/python2.5',
'/usr/local/lib/python2.5/plat-openbsd4',
'/usr/local/lib/python2.5/lib-tk',
'/usr/local/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload',
'/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages',
'/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/Numeric',
'/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gst-0.10',
'/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/gtk-2.0']

Do you see something? I don't...

thanks for the help

Pau
