Thanks, Bill, for giving this bug #4772 fix a "soon" priority since it does directly impact PLplot users. ENABLE_LANGUAGE is a necessity for PLplot since we have multiple optional language bindings. (If we put, e.g., Fortran in our PROJECT statement, we would exclude all our users that don't have a Fortran compiler available even if they didn't care about those particular language bindings for PLplot.) As a result of this bug I have had to recommend to our PLplot users that they should not use build types (which depend on the compiler flags that are not correctly set as a result of this ENABLE_LANGUAGE bug) and instead specify compiler flags directly using, e.g., FC='gfortran -g' I look forward to your bug fix which should make build types work properly for the first time on the Linux platform for PLplot (and all other projects that use ENABLE_LANGUAGE).
