:math:
directive renamed to :mathmpl:
ΒΆThe :math:
rst role provided by matplotlib.sphinxext.mathmpl
has been
renamed to :mathmpl:
to avoid conflicting with the :math:
role that
Sphinx 1.8 provides by default. (:mathmpl:
uses Matplotlib to render math
expressions to images embedded in html, whereas Sphinx uses MathJax.)
When using Sphinx<1.8, both names (:math:
and :mathmpl:
) remain
available for backcompatibility.
