That description is outdated by two releases. Updating that is the Debian/Ubuntu packager's responsibility. > Have the Fortran77 libraries actually been completely > purged?

I am pretty sure all you have to do is insert a "use plplot" statement in your old fortran code, but others here may have a better answer. > But, within it there are only shared-object libraries and no longer any > static libraries, which were very convenient. The question of packaging the static libraries is a Debian/Ubuntu packaging question which I cannot answer. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
