Installation on ubuntu

[drvinceknight]

Apparently matplotlib has issues on ubuntu and these two commands are needed:

sudo apt-get install libfreetype6-dev
sudo apt-get install libpng12-0-dev

We should add that to the readme somewhere.

This is building from scratch or installing via the package manager? Also which version of Ubuntu?

pip install was giving this problem. We think it's related to the other
issue with read the docs but I might have just had a solution suggested to
me. On the train right now, will test.

Can confirm this happened to me using pip install matplotlib

Description: Ubuntu 15.04
Release: 15.04

Cool: I think we should just add those two lines to the README.md
