I had to upgrade sci-libs/gsl from 1.9 to 1.11 and then re-emerge pygsl-0.9.0 and qtiplot-0.9.6.2 in order to eliminate the pyhton errors appearing in qtiplot's console upon launching. (I use python 2.5.2-r4). Reproducible: Always
Can you please pasteor attach the error output. You didn't miss to run python-updater after updating Python, by chance?
After emerging a new version of sci-libs/gsl, it is necessary to re-emerge dev-python/pygsl. Otherwise, it does not work. And this has nothing to do with qtiplot - importing any pygsl module from command-line python fails. So, before using python scripting in qtiplot, it is a good idea to check if you can import and use pygsl from command-line python.
I just reverted back to stable sci-libs/gsl-1.9-r1 on AMD64, updated dev-python/pygsl to 0.9.2, recompiled qtiplot-0.9.6.2 and everything works OK now. I don't know if with the [sci-libs/gsl-1.9]/[dev-python/pygsl-0.9.0] combo of my bug report this would have been the case, but anyway I run revdep-rebuild after my daily update. I really can't recall if pygsl was automatically re-emerged by revdep-rebuild after upgrading sci-libs/gsl, so I can't say what happened.
