 At least setting `SAGE_MATPLOTLIB_GUI=yes` has no real effect on my
 system, because of at least some missing components:
 {{{
 ...

 OPTIONAL BACKEND DEPENDENCIES
                 libpng: 1.2.35
                Tkinter: no
                         * TKAgg requires Tkinter
               wxPython: no
                         * wxPython not found
                   Gtk+: no
                         * Building for Gtk+ requires pygtk; you must be
 able
                         * to "import gtk" in your build/install
 environment
        Mac OS X native: no
                     Qt: no
                    Qt4: no
                  Cairo: no

 }}}

 Perhaps one should test this on other systems as well, though not really
 on topic of ''this'' ticket, i.e., I think if the list of graphics
 backends needs to be updated, this should be done on a follow-up, but we
 should IMHO check this while we're at it.

 Otherwise positive review for the current spkg.
