python-matplotlib does not detect pygtk

https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/59420

A question about this bug.
What optional deps I have to install, if I have  python-cairocffi, python-gobject and pygtk, but GTK backends do not work?

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

Re: python-matplotlib does not detect pygtk

If it doesn't work with python-gobject, I may have been mistaken. It looks like the python-gobject module is gi, can you try it with python-gobject2?
