I'm trying to start to address 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=484519

here are the issues:

- Examples are installed into /usr/share/plplot<version>/examples.  This 
is not writable.

- Examples are shipped with the appropriate sub-packages, so not all may 
be present (in particular the "c" examples)


Thoughts:

- I'd like for EXAMPLES_DIR to get set to 
/usr/share/plplot<version>/examples on install.

- I'd like to test for the existence of the sub-directories in the 
examples dir to determine which tests to run.

Something like:

# Find out what front-ends have been configured and installed
if [ -z "$FRONT_END" ] ; then
    for front_end_stats in c:@ENABLE_c@ cxx:@ENABLE_cxx@ f77:@ENABLE_f77@ \
                           f95:@ENABLE_f95@ java:@ENABLE_java@ \
                           octave:@ENABLE_octave@ python:@ENABLE_python@ \
                           tcl:@ENABLE_tcl@ perl:@ENABLE_perl@ \
                           ada:@ENABLE_ada@ ocaml:@ENABLE_ocaml@
    do
       $front_end=${front_end_status/:ON/}
       [ $front_end != $front_end_status ] && [ -d 
$EXAMPLES_DIR/$front_end ] && FRONT_END="$FRONT_END $front_end"
    done
fi

- Get rid of the chmod +x.  This shouldn't be needed.

Comments?
