Dear Anthony Viallard,

Thanks for submitting this package. It looks almost good.

Hum, why in "Development tools" ? Maybe Graphic libraries and
applications would make more sense here ?

This line is not needed.

Please also add the GNUPLOT_LICENSE and GNUPLOT_LICENSE_FILES variables.

All patches in Buildroot should have a description and a Signed-off-by
line. See
http://buildroot.org/downloads/manual/manual.html#_format_and_licensing_of_the_package_patches.

Could you cook a patch for upstream gnuplot that adds a
--{enable,disable}-demo to enable/disable the build of the demos, so
that ultimately we can drop your patch? This is not mandatory to get
your package in Buildroot, but would be nice to have.

Thanks,

Thomas

is there a special reason for this? Why not build with x, when X11 is
configured in buildroot?

Doh ! Yes, indeed. Under "Graphic application", it's better.

Doh. I forgot the description. I use dvorak keyboard for few days now. 
I'm looking for laziness.

Dear Stephan Hoffmann,

I guess because Anthony didn't need X support. It is not because a
given software component can potentially support feature Y or Z that we
require the package submitter to support all those features Y or Z. It
would put way too much load on the initial package submitter.

Instead, we prefer having small packages that only support the features
that have been tested by the submitter, and that carefully disables all
the unsupported features. And then, as features are needed by other
people, they can submit additional patches to make those additional
features work.

Anthony: a gnuplot patch without the X support is perfectly acceptable.

Best regards,

Thomas

Hello Thomas,

maybe my question was not clear enough. I just wanted to know if this
option is really required.

O.K., I didn't realize that even when configure finds out that no X11 is
present --without-x is needed for this reason.

For the records: I made a quick test without X11 and it fails to compile
without this option.

Of course, this is my opinion, too! I really like seeing it included!

Generally, it's quite good to have explicit --disable-<feature> or
--without-<feature>. It avoids the configure script from
potentially mis-detecting host libraries. Like gnuplot configure script
could say "hey, your build machine has X, let's build X support".
Passing --without-x avoids that.
