I just tried to replicate the error to provide the extra information you requested and ... I don't know why but now everything is OK. I'm pretty sure that for few days I could not produce pdfs with gnuplot. I don't know if the problem could be connected to other packages that I could have been upgraded inthe meanwhile.
But I'm getting old (I celebrated the thirty years of gnu/linux and the 25 years with Debian last year) and maybe my brain experiences some blackout. I'm really sorry. In case I meet the problem again, I'll let you know. Thank you for maintaining free software and supporting Debian Alberto On Wed, Aug 26, 2026 at 4:36 PM Dima Kogan <[email protected]> wrote: > I've made pdf plots with the version of gnuplot countless times, and it > has consistently worked.
