Hi Andrew: The current status of the Cygwin octave-3.8.2 issue is Arjen discovered the problem was an assumption in our scripts concerning the location of the plplot_octave.oct dll for the Windows case, and I am in the middle of fixing that assumption. However, once I get that fix done, if Arjen runs into additional issues it is good to know that PLplot basically works for octave-3.8.2 so many thanks for proving that. With regard to the hdf5.h location issue you discovered on Ubuntu, could you please make the required small adjustment to cmake/modules/octave.cmake using PATH_SUFFIXES on the find_path command so that it finds hdf5.h preferentially in the traditional location (/usr/include/hdf5.h), but if it is not found there it looks in the subdirectory of that location which is appropriate for Ubuntu (and probably also later versions of Debian than I have at the moment). Thanks in advance for this small fix. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
