I'm wondering if it is time to bump the plplot version numbers in git. 
I'm facing a situation in Fedora Rawhide where plplot currently fails to 
build due the update to octave 4.2 (and perhaps other changes).  As a 
result I'm leaning towards packaging up a git snapshot - but the git 
version numbers are still 5.11.1, and I figure we're a lot closer to 
5.12.0 at this point.

The other concern though would be whether or not all needed soversion 
bumps have been made at this point.  I haven't run the changes through 
any tools, but I don't see any version changes, just the dropping of 
libplplotf95c.
