Ubuntu 14.04 doesn't not have the latest version of plplot. The core library was called plplotd until the last release. The d stood for double precision. This was for historic reasons, and always confused, so as of the latest plplot release the "d" has been dropped. Try -lplplotd instead and all should work.
