Ok, good luck!
I have no knowledge of Plasma, but given the error you describe I
wonder if Plasma indulges in the sort of monkeying with upstream
code that could be found in Ubuntu's "Unity" -- that is, driving a
wedge between an application and the libraries against which it's
linked, via LD_PRELOAD or equivalent.
In this case, gretl_x11 is (supposed to be) linked against libgretl,
which contains the public symbol dataset_is_subsampled, yet that
symbol is apparently not found. Either your gretl build is broken,
or some third party (Plasma?) is intercepting and breaking the
required linkage.
