Re: Cannot print plots that have ylabel in Linux Mint

[Gsparky]

Thanks. I did that last night as I was trying to build 3.8.2 from source. 
Unfortunately, I appear to have screwed something else up because now "print" 
just hangs. When I run the "print" command, I get no response at all. When I 
press Ctrl + C, I get:

^Cwarning: broken pipe

I'll keep researching to see if I can figure out why this is happening. Again, 
any guidance is appreciated.
