OK, thanks for the explanation! I had not realised that the partially binary
distribution is to blame. Usually I only update everything when I have lots of
time, as it takes quite a few hours to recompile GCC, hence I do not do it all
that frequently but needed a feature in the new gnuplot. And now I have too
many papers to write and datasets o maintain (climexp.knmi.nl)...
Anyway, thanks again for the wonderful system & the support,
Geert Jan van Oldenborgh
