Thanks, Werner, for checking that the fix (to the cmake_link_flags macro in cmake/modules/pkg-config.cmake) actually solved the Mac OS X problem you identified. Important Note for all Developers Now that Werner has shown the fix (to allow white-space delimited linker options for the results from pkg-config and wx-config) actually works for his Mac OS X platform it needs further testing on all platforms. The reason this testing is required is that certain components of PLplot (such as the psttf, cairo, and gcw device drivers) depend on pkg-config and, of course, the wxwidgets device driver depends on wx-config. Therefore, on some platforms it is conceivable that the fix has introduced unforseen problems for these components. It obviously works for Werner on Mac OS X (although he may not have been using all components of PLplot that depend on pkg-config there), and it also works for the default build (which does include most/all pkg-config and wx-config related components) on my fully loaded Debian testing platform. Please take this opportunity to test the build of the latest version of PLplot from svn trunk to make sure this fix does not introduce build problems for the platforms and PLplot components that are accessible to you.
