gnuplot 4.2 PKGBUILD

Hello everyone,

as there was no update of the gnuplot PKGBUILD lately, I have written my own one, inspired by the old one and by the (outdated) gnuplot-cvs PKGBUILD from AUR.  This is it:

# $Id$
# Maintainer:
# Contributor: Niklas Volbers <mithrandir42@web.de>

pkgname=gnuplot
pkgver=4.2.0
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="Command-line driven interactive data and function plotting utility"
url="http://www.gnuplot.info"
depends=('gd>=2.0.29' 'libpng' 'libx11' 'wxgtk')
makedepends=('texinfo')
source=(http://download.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/$pkgname/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz)
md5sums=(f688a578ddb4c376fd7d91ce444a0745)

build() {
  cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver

 ./configure --prefix=/usr \
    --libexecdir=/usr/bin \
    --datadir=/usr/share \
    --with-readline=gnu \
    --enable-history-file \
    --with-x

 make || return 1

 make DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg \
    libexecdir=/usr/bin \
    pkglibexecdir=/usr/bin \
    datadir=/usr/share install

  install -D $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver/Copyright $startdir/pkg/usr/share/licenses/custom/gnuplot/Copyright
}

I am not sure if the wxwidget terminal should be included by default. If so, then I guess I can remove the libx11 dependency.

The corresponding file tree looks like this:

    |   |-- gnuplot
    |   `-- gnuplot_x11

Re: gnuplot 4.2 PKGBUILD

Hehe, interesting, yesterday I found myself copying the PKGBUILD from abs and just changing version and md5sums to get the new version. Looks so much better with antialiasing!

Re: gnuplot 4.2 PKGBUILD

My first PKGBUILD had a problem with the x11 terminal.

Re: gnuplot 4.2 PKGBUILD

Shouldn't there be a license='custom' field too since you're storing the copyright file in /usr/share/licenses?

I guess you are right, so I added it to the PKGBUILD.

Re: gnuplot 4.2 PKGBUILD

Updated PKGBUILD:
* libpng was an unnecessary dependency, because gd depends on libpng
* libx11 was an unnecessary dependency, because wxgtk depneds on libx11.

Re: gnuplot 4.2 PKGBUILD

What would it require to enable pdf-output? Something like libpdf or something,

Any one else tried that? Otherwise I'll give it a try.

(The new texlive doesn't seem to include the eps2pdf converter, so native pdf output would be awsome).

Cheers,

Re: gnuplot 4.2 PKGBUILD

You would need to include pdflite (or something like this). There is a bug about this in the bug tracker. I personally don't believe this is a good idea, because it adds yet another (totally unneeded) dependency.

There are better possibilities! One way is to produce postscript files using ps2pdf. Quick and easy!

For my own needs, I often need to join several graphs into one file. For this I use a combination of ghostscript and ps2pdf The following is my script called 'summary' which I use, and which joins multiple ps files into a single pdf 'summary.pdf':

#!/bin/bash

if [ "$#" == "0" ]; then
  echo "usage: summary postscriptfile(s)"
  exit 1
fi

gs -sDEVICE=pswrite -sOutputFile=summary.ps -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH $* && ps2pdf summary.ps

FYI, gnuplot 4.2.0 has been available from the  extra repo for a while.

Re: gnuplot 4.2 PKGBUILD

strange problem with gnuplot:

Can't find PostScript prologue file /usr/share/gnuplot/gnuplot/4.2/PostScript/prologue.ps
        loadpath is empty
Please copy prologue.ps to one of the above directories
or set the loadpath appropriately
or set the environmental variable GNUPLOT_PS_DIR
"ga_weights_histogram.gp", line 19: Plot failed!

The file is there and readable...

Re: gnuplot 4.2 PKGBUILD

the problem is in the pkgbuild (the one in extra): /usr/share/gnuplot/gnuplot/4.2/PostScript/prologue.ps
