matplotlib now completely broken with hvplot

It used to work for the most part

import xarray as xr
import hvplot.xarray
import holoviews as hv
hv.extension('matplotlib')
ds = xr.tutorial.open_dataset('air_temperature').isel(lat=0, lon=0)
ds.hvplot('lon', 'lat')

But now it errors out:

ValueError: Unexpected option 'height' for Curve type when using the 'matplotlib' extension. No similar options founds.

hvPlot now supports Matplotlib as an additional backend.

Just to be clear, Matplotlib is fully supported by HoloViews and by Panel; it’s simply not supported by hvPlot. hvPlot is an alternative API for HoloViews that maps from options specified into a certain form that was defined by Pandas into HoloViews options for the Bokeh backend. We can do the same sort of mapping for any other backend, but currently have neither funding nor volunteers for doing that. So we do not support Matplotlib for hvPlot currently, but that could change if we get either funding or a volunteer to work with us to do that mapping.
