It is a little strange, I fixed it by adding a `deps/build.jl`, installing `matplotlib` through `Conda.pip` and then again, through `Conda.add`, before pointing `PyCall` to Conda’s python. None of which had I needed earlier for PyPlot as a dependency. See here for the [fix](https://github.com/GeoscienceAustralia/HiQGA.jl/commit/db833bf32840503ee3bd0909b2b92993c239413c)
