Install inkscape

Download figurefirst:

Make a virtual environment

Include the system site packages (that way we don't have to install numpy, scipy, etc)
sudo apt-get install python-virtualenv
virtualenv FIG --system-site-packages
source FIG/bin/activate

Install figurefirst

python ./setup.py install

Install inkscape extensions

Copy the .inx and .py files from figurefirst/inkscape_extensions to the appropriate directory
cp * ~/.config/inkscape/extensions/

Install jupyter notebook in our virtual env
