AttributeError: 'PathCollection' object has no property 'stat_func'

When installing NanoPlot using pip in a fresh environment of Python 3.6.9, seaborn 0.11.0 gets installed.

If I try to use the tool, specifically when generating a report from a sequencing_summary I get this

Traceback (most recent call last):

If I manually install 0.10.1 of seaborn which is the minimum required version for NanoPlot the script then works.

This leads me to think this is something about seaborn and matplotlib, and not necessarily involving NanoPlot. Could you try, for seaborn 0.11.0, to also upgrade matplotlib?

I just came across this issue myself, and have changed the required version of seaborn to 0.10.1 (and not just the minimum). I don't really have the time now to figure out what is wrong with seaborn 0.11.0.
