# - Find the matplotlib libraries
# This module finds IF matplotlib is installed, and sets the following variables
# indicating where it is.

#  MATPLOTLIB_FOUND            - was matplotlib found

#  MATPLOTLIB_VERSION_MAJOR    - the major version number of matplotlib
#  MATPLOTLIB_VERSION_MINOR    - the minor version number of matplotlib
#  MATPLOTLIB_VERSION_PATCH    - the patch version number of matplotlib
#  MATPLOTLIB_PATH_DIRS        - path to the matplotlib include files
