Thank you for your reply. It made me think. fink info plplot said
version was 5.8.0-1015. What I did was to force the removal of octave-
atlas and then install plplot which of course also reinstalled
octave. Doing things this way round seems to have worked. Perhaps you
may understand why. I have no idea. The initial part of the
installation is given below.

The following package will be installed or updated:
plplot
The following 3 additional packages will be installed:
octave-atlas plplot-dev plplot-shlibs
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
