linux mint 下安装matplotlib

在win下安装matplotlib，直接pip install matplotlib即可。

但是linux mint 下老是出错误提示：

    i686-linux-gnu-gcc -pthread -DNDEBUG -g -fwrapv -O2 -Wall -g -fstack-protector-strong -Wformat -Werror=format-security -Wdate-time -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fPIC -DFREETYPE_BUILD_TYPE=system -DPY_ARRAY_UNIQUE_SYMBOL=MPL_matplotlib_ft2font_ARRAY_API -DNPY_NO_DEPRECATED_API=NPY_1_7_API_VERSION -D__STDC_FORMAT_MACROS=1 -Iextern/agg24-svn/include -I/home/oliveryty/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/numpy/core/include -I/usr/include/python3.6m -c src/checkdep_freetype2.c -o build/temp.linux-i686-3.6/src/checkdep_freetype2.o

百度一下，发现可能需要使用apt-get 下载，于是先用apt search 搜索一下：

~$ sudo apt search matplotlib

我们需要的是python3-matplotlib：

sudo apt install python3-matplotlib

安装成功后，直接到idle里import 一下试试

>>> import matplotlib
>>> 

没有错误提示，说明成功。
