Update matplotlib to 1.2 and add Python 3.x ports

[robitaille@…]

Matplotlib 1.2 is now out (​http://matplotlib.org/) and supports Python 3.x, so would it be possible to update the port, and add Python 3.1 and 3.2 ports?

I updated to version 1.2.0 in r99786, at the moment some of the dependencies are missing for python3. I'll work on adding these then get python3 variants added.

I get pop-up windows during the matplotlib build phase. Is that normal?

I see two test errors with Python 2.7 on Mac OS X 10.8:

I don't get any pop-up windows but several python and X threads are spawned which may cause X to launch?

I see a lot of these KnownFailureTest failures as well, I would expect these to fail silently. I'm in the process of clarifying with upstream.

[skymoo (Adam Mercer)]

I've heard from upstream and it turns out the using the command:

nosetests -exe matplotlib

isn't the correct way of running the tests, as matplotlib has nose extensions that running them using the above doesn't load the extensions hence the errors. If you run:

python -c "import matplotlib; matplotlib.test()"

then I expect the testsuite will pass.

Yes, with python -c "import matplotlib; matplotlib.test()" all tests pass for me also. Wouldn't it be nice if all Python packages had one standard way to test them after installing ... Sorry for the noise.
