Hi Alan,


The tarball indicates that the command "plplot_octave" was not found. Could it 
be that the subdirectory "dll" needs to be added to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH 
environment variable or perhaps to the PATH variable? I have not spent that 
much time on figuring this out - running the examples by hand was unsuccessful 
in a completely different way, but that is my ignorance regarding Octave 
(complaints about x00c not being the function file name "").



Regards,



Arjen

No, my script to start the comprehensive tests first starts the X Window 
server. When I leave out Octave, it all goes well, but with Octave I see that 
CMake does not continue after printing where it found Octave. I suspect 
something is waiting for input, but I do not yet have a clue what. As yesterday 
was my day to travel home, I did not have an opportunity to dig into it. So, 
instead I tried it without the X server running - this was just a lucky guess. 
And then I ran into the ctest problems.

Okay, that is quite doable.  I will start the tests that way rightaway.
