Hi James: Thanks for following up and finding the source of the issue. See Official Notices 1.1 in the README.release file that is being prepared for the forthcoming release for the reasons we made this backwards incompatible change to remove the "d" suffix on our library names. This change was made some time ago (March 2014, commit id = d1a2aaa7) but still within the current release cycle. It will be part of the forthcoming release. So to adjust for this incompatibility, the GDL build system must also drop the d suffix in the PLplot library names when linked to the git version of PLplot or to the PLplot-5.11.0 version of PLplot (once that is released). Since this PLplot change was made so long ago, I am now wondering if the GDL developers have already adjusted for it in the latest development version of GDL. So try that version (if you are not doing that already). Or if latest GDL does not solve the issue, then the GDL developers may just be waiting for our official release 5.11.0 before making the change there. In which case you should stick to PLplot-5.10.0 or else make your own local change to GDL to adjust for the changed PLplot library names. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
