ImportError('cannot import name scimath',)

[ufechner7]

Hello,
I use Ubuntu 12.04, 64 bit.
I installed the newest matplotlib version with pip:
sudo pip install -U matplotlib

It works fine in python.

But I cannot import it from Julia 0.2.

using PyPlot results in the following error message:

ulia> using PyPlot
LoadError("/home/ufechner/.julia/PyPlot/src/PyPlot.jl",32,PyError (PyImport_ImportModule) <type 'exceptions.ImportError'>

Any idea?

I can reproduce the problem already like this (using julia 0.21):
using PyCall
@pyimport numpy

-> same exception as above

What version of numpy do you have?

Closing in favor of JuliaPy/PyCall.jl#65.
