The rebuild is still not perfect:
I rebuilded from source as indicated above, and put higer version number
I have removed gnuplot, and all unneeded plplot stuff, to keep only what i need
$ dpkg -l | grep plplot|awk '{print $1 "\t" $2 "\t" $3}'
ii libplplot9 5.9.2-32-AL1
ii octave-plplot 5.9.2-32-AL1
ii plplot-bin 5.9.2-32-AL1
ii plplot-doc 5.9.2-32-AL1
ii plplot9-driver-cairo 5.9.2-32-AL1
ii plplot9-driver-gd 5.9.2-32-AL1
if i produce an error (not togle_plplot_use before trying to plot) then next
invocation will fail:
1/ This is ok :
------------------
octave:1> x=[0, 1, 3, 4, -1]; y = [ -1, 4, 6, -2, 1];
octave:2> toggle_plplot_use
Use PLplot: on
octave:3> plot(x,y)
Requested device xwin not available
Plotting Options:
< 1> ps PostScript File (monochrome)
< 2> psc PostScript File (color)
2/ With an error first, then it fails and i need to retart octave:
octave:1> x=[0, 1, 3, 4, -1]; y = [ -1, 4, 6, -2, 1];
octave:2> plot(x,y)
sh: gnuplot: not found
sh: gnuplot: not found
error: you must have gnuplot installed to display graphics; if you have gnuplot
installed in a non-standard location, see the 'gnuplot_binary' function
octave:3> toggle_plplot_use
Use PLplot: on
octave:4> plot(x,y)
^C^CPress Control-C again to abort.
