Hi Alan,
thanks for the quick reply.
I'm using opensuse 13.2 x86_64 system.
my qt is 5.3.1 binary packages provided by the opensuse repository.
I built the plplot with the command
atome@linux-9gx6:~/StatisticalForecast/bibucket/plplot/plplot-code-13137-trunk/built-dir>
cmake -DDEFAULT_NO_CAIRO_DEVICES=ON -DENABLE_DYNDRIVERS=OFF
-DDEFAULT_NO_BINDINGS=ON -DENABLE_cxx=ON -DENABLE_qt=ON -DPLPLOT_USE_QT5=ON
-DCMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include/qt5/
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/atome/StatisticalForecast/bibucket/plplot/plplotLibs/
../ >& cmake.out
