Re: [Matplotlib-users] trying to use latex

After upgrading from MPL 0.82 to 0.87 and tried again, the message
from MPL was that I needed tex version 0.31415 or later. I have
0.3141592 and the reason why MPL didn`t find it is described in bugs
on Sourceforge with the title
"Bug with text.usetex =3D true on WinXP with MiKTeX". So I just edited
__init__.py and latex now seems to work with MPL.
