This is the base package which supports only non-GUI and non-interactive
graphics output. For interactive graphics install one of the following
packages:
- python-matplotlib-gtk (for GTK/GTKAgg/GTKCairo backend)
- python-matplotlib-gtk3 (for GTK3Agg/GTK3Cairo backend)
- python-matplotlib-qt4 (for Qt4Agg backend)
- python-matplotlib-qt5 (for Qt5Agg backend)
- python-matplotlib-tk (for TkAgg backend)
- python-matplotlib-web (for webagg backend)
- python-matplotlib-wx (for WX/WXAgg backend)
To change the backend, you have two ways:
- /etc/matplotlibrc (system-wide)
- $HOME/.config/matplotlib/matplotlibrc (per-user basis)
Natively, matplotlib only supports PNG images. Install python-Pillow
to support more file formats.
Matplotlibs LaTeX support requires a working LaTeX installation and
ghostscript.
