According to #736392, plplot FTBFS in unstable for other reasons.

Looks like you failed to attach that patch (something I know from
experience is all too easy to do).

It'd be really great to get an upload soon, so there's time before the
freeze to shake out any new issues - if Andrew's actively on the case,
that's great, but if he's currently too busy, an NMU is clearly
justified by the 5 RC bugs (+1 if the hdf5 FTBFS were filed) it would
fix. Any comments from Andrew on the hdf5 fix would certainly be
appreciated though.
I'm happy to sponsor or NMU if nobody more connected to the package is
able to.
Cheers,
