By the way, I think I’m about to make PGPLOT work somewhat better on FreeBSD in the imminent next version. The FreeBSD port says it’s not got a maintainer, and they’re asking for volunteers. Karl, if you’re keen on keeping PGPLOT going, that might be useful? I spun up a FreeBSD virtual machine this evening, there are many tutorials. One other possibility is for PGPLOT to get dropped from PDL, because it’s taking up a fair bit of effort, for not a great deal of benefit given there are various more modern alternatives. I’m reluctant, but there are only so many hours in the day. What do others think?

GitHub Actions is the new-ish service provided by GitHub for this. It’s much better than Travis now is, given Travis are deliberately turning off their open-source support. GitHub actions are configured in the files under .github. There are tutorials which are very good, but the starting point we have works, which always helps 😊 From: Karl Glazebrook<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: 16 February 2021 01:22 To: Ed .<mailto:[email protected]> Cc: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: pgplot instructions for Big Sur macOS Hi Ed Sorry for the dumb question - can you explain what ' GitHub Action CI’ is?

I tried to make it also test on MacOS by using your instructions, but I don’t know enough about the MacOS specifics. I’ve left the attempt on a branch, hopefully a Mac expert (Karl? 😊) can fix it: https://github.com/PDLPorters/perl5-PGPLOT/tree/macos-ci From: Karl Glazebrook<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: 14 January 2021 00:26 To: Ed .<mailto:[email protected]> Cc: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: pgplot instructions for Big Sur macOS Hi all An update on this. The config there uses Apple’s CC, but I have now come across some random segv’s that seem to be avoided if one uses GCC 11 and GFORTRAN 11. So I would recommend editing gfortran_cc_BigSur.conf from that patch to use GCC - and take it from http://hpc.sourceforge.net<http://hpc.sourceforge.net/> (which is where I got GFORTRAN) Karl On 7 Jan 2021, at 4:57 pm, Karl Glazebrook <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Here you go Ed et al: This below installs a fully functioning pgplot on my Big Sur ARM Mac in /usr/local/pgplot. I expect it will also work the same on Big Sur Intel. You need to have prerequisites: 1.

I guess the patch and the latest hard to find pgplot tarball is the most important thing. The patch selects drivers that work and are relevant today, fixes up the makefile generator, and changes one line of code in the png driver to avoid an error. cheers Karl On 6 Jan 2021, at 2:18 am, Ed . <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hi Karl, Could you capture on here what lines of code etc you changed, hopefully along with all the software versions you used etc, so that ideally someone else arriving fresh could do exactly what you did and get the same results?
