Hi Puneet: Do you mean you could not install the plplot graphics library
or the PDL::Graphics::PLplot interface to plplot?

with PLPLOT and HDF turned off, and with g77 installed from

install process.
Do you think you could write up a how-to? If you send it to this list, I'll
put it on the wiki.
I don't think I did anything special other than kept banging at it.
Besides, it was all done over such a long period of time that I don't
even remember all of it. Basically, I started downloading and building
every conceivable dependency for PDL. The only one that I was not able
to install easily was PLPLOT. Even when I thought I had installed it
correctly, PDL kept on choking on it. There might have been a similar
problem with HDF, I don't recall properly. Eventually, I just set PDL
to not build against PLPLOT and HDF in perldl.conf, and then did a
make, sudo make install.
I did get the g77 installer from the hpc site I found on SciKarl's
website. Everything else was pretty standard.
If you want, I can rewrite the above more nicely, but it won't be any
much nicer than the above. That's what it really was.
Thanks!
David
