Thanks, Werner, for digging into this issue and finding what sounds like a good solution. What I find disconcerting about Arjen's error report is the lack of error message (other than no output) when test-drv-info could not find the PLplot library. If I arrange that case on Linux by temporarily renaming the PLplot library, test-drv-info generates the following useful error message: softw...@raven> ./test-drv-info ps ./test-drv-info: error while loading shared libraries: libplplotd.so.9: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Are we stuck with the bad result that ./test-drv-info silently dies (no error message other than no output file) for the corresponding Cygwin case or is it possible you could fix that?
