Bug Description
Currently there's this in the ubuntu oneiric package:
amirbar[
/usr/share/
amirbar[
[nose.plugins]
KnownFailure = matplotlib.
this causes no end of trouble, such as the IPython test suite failing.
Please don't register this as a global nose plugin, it's really meant only for matplotlib use. In fact it was copied from numpy. We'll work in mpl to hide it further and only expose our copy if we can't find the numpy one, but the ubuntu package should NOT expose this as a global nose plugin AT ALL.
