These instructions are for an ubuntu based system -- if you are on a
different version of linux you may need different commands to install git
and the mpl build dependencies
# install git to checkout the mpl src code
sudo apt-get install git
# install the pre-reqs to build matplotlib from source
sudo apt-get build-dep python-matplotlib
# get the latest released branch of matplotlib
git clone g...@github.com:matplotlib/matplotlib.git matplotlib.git
# cd into the matplotlib directory and create a branch off of the release
branch to test
cd matplotlib.git
git checkout -b mdboom-pixel_marker v1.1.x
# pull in Michael's changes
git pull https://github.com/mdboom/matplotlib.git pixel_marker
# build the matplotlib source code
python setup.py build
# install it
sudo python setup.py install
