Hi,
I've users who wish to have gnuplot42 on SL5 (and4)
These are some packages here I've done:
http://cern.ch/straylen/rpms/gnuplot42/
which are designed to not interfere with the existing gnuplot packages
present in SL4/5.
I do have an open review here for EPEL:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=570318
but due to lack of interest I guess it is not progressing.
If it does progress I'll bump to higher release version in EPEL
than in SL and advise SL of its redundancy in SL.
Please consider gnuplot42 inclusion into SL.

As a data point we replace the sl gnuplot with our own build of 4.2
because a few of our users needed a newer version...
Not that I spent much effort on the packaging but the rpms/srpm are
available from our sl repo if anyone needs such a thing.
