Seaborn: UserWarning matplotlib: The 'normed' kwarg is deprecated

Hi,

I got a warning when plotting a distribution, it seems to be caused by the matplotlib wrapper used by seaborn.

I have matplotlib 2.2.2 and seaborn 0.8.1, thanks.

Hi,

I'm seeing the same warning using matplotlib 2.2.2 and seaborn 0.8.1 from conda 4.5.0.

[...]/miniconda3/envs/jup3/lib/python3.6/site-packages/matplotlib/axes/_axes.py:6462: UserWarning: The 'normed' kwarg is deprecated, and has been replaced by the 'density' kwarg.

Sorry, but it appears that the seaborn 0.8.1 package from conda 4.5.0 is lacking this patch. In line 214 of seaborn/distributions.py, I changed "normed" to "norm_hist" and the warning message is gone. Thanks!

It seems that the warning was already patched but no stable release incorporates it yet

I also get the warning using python 2.7.14, matplotlib-2.2.2 and seaborn 0.8.1...
c:\python27\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\axes_axes.py:6462: UserWarning: The 'normed' kwarg is deprecated, and has been replaced by the 'density' kwarg.

Guys, this warning is already patched but as I said, no stable release contains it yet. Look at the comment of @russtoku for a temporary manual patch until the official release 😉
