 Thanks for looking at these. I have a more comprehensive fix for both of 
 these 
 bugs nearly ready. This involves backporting several fixes from upstream and 
 also (more intrusively) updating the packages to use gdc-v2. This is nearly 
 ready. I'll try and let you have a version to test asap and get it uploaded.

I suspect you know it already since you seem to be a member of the
upstream development team, but just to be sure (and also in case others
follow this bug report):

A new upstream release (5.9.10) was released today[1] which contains a
fix for at least #707268. From the upstream changelog[2]:

1.7 The D bindings and examples have been converted from the old
version of D (D1) to the new version of D (D2)

[1] http://sourceforge.net/p/plplot/news/2013/10/plplot-release-5910/
[2] http://sourceforge.net/projects/plplot/files/plplot/5.9.10%20Source/

(Stumbled over it by accident, because I've just uploaded a new
upstream release of GNU Data Language and I wanted to check how the
chances are for it to migrate to Jessie in acceptable time.)

Regards, Axel

Thanks. I'm already working on the new Debian packages. The release is the 
reason I'd not uploaded packages to fix the open bugs sooner. The bugs are both 
fixed in the new release, but the D language changes  made backporting a 
substantial task.

Ah, great!

Can imagine that. Thanks for the feedback!

(In the meanwhile I'm fighting with FTBFS of gnudatalanguage's new
upstream version on some architectures. Doh.)

Any news here?

  I'll see if I can make an NMU for those two issues.
 
 I'll at least won't do an NMU solely based on the Ubuntu patches for
 multiple reasons:
 
 * There's no bug report in Debian claiming that the Ada bindings need
   to be disabled, too. (Haven't checked if it still builds with them,
   though.)
 
 * The package already uses slice (Cool! :-) to easily enable and
   disable some binary packages, but Ubuntu's patches ignore that and
   just rip out the according stanzas from debian/control.in which
   seems wrong to me.
 
 Additionally I don't think I can test the generated packages
 thoroughly. I usually only need libplplot-dev as build-dependency for
 gnudatalanguage and the xwin driver.
