It's broken further down anyways: see discussion starting at https://gitter.im/matplotlib/matplotlib?at=59777c5e1c8697534a5be4cb If we want to restore this functionality it should be correctly tested.

huh, GAE has a whole doc section on us: https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/python/tools/using-libraries-python-27#matplotlib however, they ship 1.2.0 (!?) https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/python/tools/built-in-libraries-27 I am mixed on this. Last time this got fixed a google engineer did the work. A few release ago I did ping them about updating, but it apparently involves a through security review (!). If we have already broken it, ripping out all of the special cases and waiting for google to fix it again is probably a reasonable path. |

I would say unless the GAE team is free to patch mpl in whatever way they want or even make a new PR which makes mpl 2.0+ work once again in GAE (possibly with testing this time...), but right now the code is basically useless. |

If google wants to update the version of Matplotlib they ship, this will probably be small to fix compared to the rest of the work they will need to do. |
