Sorry I forgot to mention that.

Thanks for the advice. The pstex driver can be built with the cmake
option -DENABLE_DYNDRIVERS=OFF. I have run all the example programs in
C, C++, Fortran and Python for the pstex driver and get a segmentation
fault for all of them. In most examples part of an EPS file and a latex
file that includes the EPS are created before the segmentation fault. I
was thinking that the pstex driver was similar to the latex driver in
PGPLOT and the latex and eepic terminals in gnuplot that creates a Latex
picture environment.

The other drivers I have tested are working well for me and I can
include the PostScript output in a Latex document.

Miguel
