The latest version of matplotlib is 1.1.0 and it brings new modules like matplotlib.animation(I get marks in exams only if I use this module to animate(crazy isn't it! ))
How can I install the latest matplotlib in sagemath 4.8.3 x86-64 version?
I just tried out the following and seems to work for me. I get a bunch of warnings so I am not sure it is fully functional but the I can import matplotlib.animation
On your linux terminal type(assuming sage is in your PATH)
sage -sh
You will get a sage shell. In that type
easy_install -U matplotlib
That should do it.
Edit: For some reason plt.show() does not work for me. And im_ani.save does not work unless you have ffmpeg installed. So install ffmpeg on you machine and save the movie in mp4 format.
Try this (from the command line):
sage -i http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/jason/matplotlib-1.1.0.spkg
It might also help to apply the patch from Sage trac ticket 11915.
