Package: gnuplot-doc
Version: 5.2.2+dfsg1-2
Severity: minor
The Gnuplot PDF manual gnuplot.pdf does not have images. The reason is
that upstream chose to use picins, which is not provided in Debian.
There are several solutions:
1. Ask to provide picins if the license issue can be solved:
http://www.tug.org/pipermail/tex-live/2007-December/015186.html
2. Use a patch to use wrapfig instead of picins. There were bugs in 2008:
https://sourceforge.net/p/gnuplot/bugs/655/
but perhaps they have been solved, and perhaps this could still be
useful even though the layout is not as good as with picins.
3. Use gnuplot.pdf from upstream, as suggested here:
https://sourceforge.net/p/gnuplot/feature-requests/423/
if there are no documentation patches (alternatively, provide both
the upstream gnuplot.pdf and the rebuilt one).
