.. note::

    1.  RNA coverage plot requires `bedtools <https://github.com/arq5x/bedtools2>`_ to be installed.

        This release of riboplot has been tested with bedtools version ``2.17.0``.

        On Ubuntu and derivatives, bedtools can be installed from the repositories using::

            sudo apt-get install bedtools

    2.  Matplotlib installation requires freetype headers and libraries installed
        (``libfreetype6-dev`` on Ubuntu 14.04).
