I am planning to do a substantial amount of backwards-incompatible changes to remove cruft in our git master branch version of PLplot which will be the basis for our next release (currently planned for early 2018). So unless I hear strong arguments to the contrary because some of you are still dependent on this cruft, I am planning to go ahead with these changes [....]
I have now completed this major cruft removal project as of commit 53b33bd. This new lean PLplot passes all my tests, but I would appreciate it if the PLplot users here also tested it out by git cloning our master branch following the directions at <https://sourceforge.net/p/plplot/plplot/ci/master/tree/>; configuring (with cmake), building, and installing PLplot as you normally do; testing that result by using it as you normally do; and, of course, post here if you find any issues with this master branch version of PLplot. Of course, before making such posts, please read the recent commit messages stretching back to 5.13.0 and README.release in the top of our source tree. Those two important sources of information include comments on the master branch changes (including the fairly large number of commits used for this cruft removal project) that we have done since 5.13.0 was released.
