Hi Arjen: I agree with your conclusions about the the clean nature of these results for the largest number of PLplot components tested on Cygwin so far. My thanks for your essential help in achieving this high point for Cygwin! That said, your report does indicate there is still one noninteractive issue that we should deal with for this release cycle, and my apologies for missing it until now. Your latest result uses cmake_added_options=-DENABLE_octave=OFF -DENABLE_ada=OFF to workaround some build system issues on the Cygwin platform. -DENABLE_octave=OFF is something you adopted on June 3rd after installing the final Octave-related Cygwin package that was required. Your comment back then was - Allowing Octave gave Cmake errors about two versus four arguments. I turned that off. As far as I know we never followed up further on this build-system issue for configuring the Octave binding of PLplot, but I would like to do that now. So when you get a change could you run the script again without -DENABLE_octave=OFF so I can diagnose (and hopefully fix) this issue? I believe this issue will be the last noninteractive one I will attempt to deal with for the Cygwin platform in this release cycle. Of course, you also use -DENABLE_ada=OFF to workaround the well-known Ada language support issue on Cygwin, but I expect you will be continuing with that workaround indefinitely because it is likely I will only be able to deal with this issue some time after the planned 5.11.1 release.
