I'm uploading the {S}RPM packages of the GNU plotutils to
incoming.redhat.com. The libplot contained in the previous release has a
bug regarding USE_DOUBLE_BUFFERING with X. The author kindly sent me a
patch and so I decided to release an updated package.
While RedHat moves the file under the proper dir in their site, you can
get it at

(where you can find also the patch from Robert S. Maier).

Summary : GNU Plotting Utilities
Description :
The GNU plotting utilities, sometimes called `plotutils', include: (1) GNU
libplot, a shared library for exporting 2-D vector graphics files and for
performing vector graphics animation under the X Window System. Its output
file formats include the new WebCGM format, pseudo-GIF, PNM, Adobe
Illustrator, Postscript (editable with the free `idraw' drawing editor),
Fig (editable with the free `xfig' drawing editor), PCL 5, HP-GL and
HP-GL/2, Tektronix, and GNU metafile format. Many Postscript, PCL, and
Hershey fonts are supported. A separate class library, `libplotter',
provides a C++ binding to libplot's functionality. (2) Sample
command-line applications `graph', `plot', `tek2plot', `pic2plot', and
`plotfont', which are built on top of GNU libplot. `graph' is a powerful
utility for XY plotting, `plot' translates GNU metafiles to other formats,
`tek2plot' translates legacy Tektronix data, `pic2plot' translates
box-and-arrow diagrams in the pic language, and `plotfont' plots character
maps. (3) Command-line applications `spline', `double', and `ode', which
are useful in scientific plotting. `spline' does spline interpolation of
input data of arbitrary dimensionality. It uses cubic splines, splines
under tension, or cubic Bessel interpolation. `ode' is an interactive
program that can integrate a user-specified system of ordinary
differential equations.
P.S.
The packages are build on an uptodate RedHat 6.1 i386 box.
