Bug Description
Binary package hint: ipython
From the upstream bug: https:/
After updating to ipython 0.10.1 on 64-bit Linux, I noticed that plotting commands no longer automatically display anything when ipython is started with the -pylab option. Moreover, the show() command now appears to block in pylab mode.
This issue is fixed in the latest stable release of ipython: 0.10.2

this only affects the matplotlib GTK backend which is not used by default.
The default backend (TKAgg) works fine.
You can change backend by copying /etc/matplotlibrc to $HOME/.matplotlib/ and changing the "backend:" line
