 ## <a name="installation"></a> Installation on Debian/Ubuntu/Linux
 
-In addition to Matplotlib (version >= 3.3.0), this crate depends on `russell_lab`, which, in turn, depends on an efficient BLAS library such as [OpenBLAS](https://github.com/OpenMathLib/OpenBLAS) and [Intel MKL](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/onemkl/developer-reference-c/2023-2/overview.html). Thus, we have two options:
+This crate needs Python3 and Matplotlib, of course.
 
-1. Use the standard Debian packages based on OpenBLAS (default)
-2. **(XOR)** Install Intel MKL, which includes LAPACK
-
-Option 2 requires the following environment variable:
-
-```bash
-export RUSSELL_LAB_USE_INTEL_MKL=1
-```
-
-For convenience, you may use the scripts in the [zscripts](https://github.com/cpmech/plotpy/tree/main/zscripts) directory.
-
-**1.** Install Matplotlib and use the standard Debian packages based on OpenBLAS:
-
-```bash
-bash zscripts/01-ubuntu-matplotlib-and-openblas.bash
-```
-
-**2.** Install Matplotlib and install Intel MKL:
-
-```bash
-bash zscripts/02-ubuntu-matplotlib-and-intel-mkl.bash

-### <a name="macos"></a> Installation on macOS
-
-In macOS, you may use [Homebrew](https://brew.sh/) (and pip) to install the dependencies:
-
-```bash
-brew install openblas lapack
-pip3 install matplotlib
-```
-
-**Note** In macOS, we have to set the `LIBRARY_PATH` all the time when using `plotpy`:
+On Debian/Ubuntu/Linux, run:
 
 ```bash
-export LIBRARY_PATH=$LIBRARY_PATH:$(brew --prefix)/opt/openblas/lib:$(brew --prefix)/opt/lapack/lib
+sudo apt install python3-matplotlib
