Hi Alan, the reason for the failure was that I had missed the ".code." segment of the URL. Rather than replying that that repository did not exist it replied that it was _temporarily_ replaced by a strange and unrelated URL. I would probably have been more alert to the mistake in the URL if it had simply said: no such repository.
Anyway, the action succeeded and I was able to: - build PLplot under Ubuntu, using this virtual machine - reproduce the segmentation violation which occurs with wish_standard_examples (note: this does _not_ seem to occur under Cygwin - but I realise now that I may not have been patient enough to let it run to the end) - confirm that the problem occurs with wish+plstdwin+plframe+exit, not with plserver+plstdwin+plframe+exit My working hypothesis is that there is something nasty occurring in the plframe widget that is covered up by plserver but not by wish. A first glance at the source code of plserver and plframe did not reveal anything suspicious, though, so this is going to be a somewhat involved hunt for the bug. (One thing though: to my delight, under this Linux virtual machine the examples run very fast, which is not the case under Cygwin+tk-device - though Cygwin+ntk-device is fine) I will document the above at the PLplot bug report later.
