My updated script appears not to be capturing the script itself for some reason. I cannot spot any typographical errors with how SCRIPTNAME is being used within the script. By any chance, have you renamed the script without updating SCRIPTNAME to be consistent? Anyhow, please fix whatever the problem is since the captured script within the tarball is useful since it has tailored sections which are useful to know for each run. As far as the results are concerned, please look at env.out, you can see that PLPLOT_DRV_DIR=/d/plplot-svn/comprehensive_test_disposeable/shared/build_tree/drivers is set there, and I presume that was not subsequently modified by the script. However, from the list of files all the dll's are properly collected in the dll directory: /d/plplot-svn/comprehensive_test_disposeable/shared/build_tree/dll rather than the drivers directory. Furthermore if you look at what is actually in the drivers directory pointed to by PLPLOT_DRV_DIR, you find a bunch of CMake and Make files and also *.driver_info files. At first I was going to dismiss those *.driver_info files as output only, but now I see in src/plcore.c there is an attempt to read them. That process works without PLPLOT_DRV_DIR set on my MinGW/MSYS/Wine platform by that is required on your platform for some reason. Typically such PLplot file reads use several alternative methods so I presume one of those is working here, but not there so you have to fall back to PLPLOT_DRV_DIR. To make further progress could you please take a look at src/plcore.c to trace through how PLPLOT_DRV_DIR is used there for the *.driver_info files? I will do that as well here (somewhat later today after I have had some sleep). To help with that task, also run the x00 example by hand using the -debug option. Please mimic the script by putting the dll subdirectory on your PATH, execute cd \ /d/plplot-svn/comprehensive_test_disposeable/shared/build_tree, and make sure the example and device driver are built using make x00c; make ps Then attempt to run the built example once with PLPLOT_DRV_DIR set to above and once with PLPLOT_DRV_DIR set to nothing (PLPLOT_DRV_DIR=). examples/c/x00c -debug -dev psc -o test.psc 2>&1 |\ grep -v unicode |grep -v set_font (The grep stanzas remove lots of debug noise consisting of glyph details.) Here is the corresponding result here on MinGW/MSYS/Wine # Show PLPLOT_DRV_DIR not set bash.exe-3.1$ printenv |grep PLPLOT bash.exe-3.1$ examples/c/x00c -debug -dev psc -o test.psc 2>&1 | grep -v unicode |grep -v set_font plLoadDriver: Device not loaded! plLoadDriver: tag=psc, drvidx=0 plLoadDriver: Trying to load ps on ps plGetName: Maximum length of full pathname of file to be found is 115 plGetName: Full pathname of file to be found is z:/home/wine/newstart/build_script/build_dir-1.6.1/epa_build/Source/build_plplot_lite\data\c map0_default.pal plLibOpenPdfstr: Found file z:/home/wine/newstart/build_script/build_dir-1.6.1/epa_build/Source/build_plplot_lite\data\cmap0_default.pal plGetName: Maximum length of full pathname of file to be found is 115 plGetName: Full pathname of file to be found is z:/home/wine/newstart/build_script/build_dir-1.6.1/epa_build/Source/build_plplot_lite\data\c map0_default.pal plLibOpenPdfstr: Found file z:/home/wine/newstart/build_script/build_dir-1.6.1/epa_build/Source/build_plplot_lite\data\cmap0_default.pal plGetName: Maximum length of full pathname of file to be found is 115 plGetName: Full pathname of file to be found is z:/home/wine/newstart/build_script/build_dir-1.6.1/epa_build/Source/build_plplot_lite\data\c map1_default.pal plLibOpenPdfstr: Found file z:/home/wine/newstart/build_script/build_dir-1.6.1/epa_build/Source/build_plplot_lite\data\cmap1_default.pal plOpenFile: Opened test.psc plGetName: Maximum length of full pathname of file to be found is 109 plGetName: Full pathname of file to be found is z:/home/wine/newstart/build_script/build_dir-1.6.1/epa_build/Source/build_plplot_lite\data\p lxtnd5.fnt plLibOpenPdfstr: Found file z:/home/wine/newstart/build_script/build_dir-1.6.1/epa_build/Source/build_plplot_lite\data\plxtnd5.fnt For completeness, I also ran the same example with PLPLOT_DRV_DIR set to the drivers directory, e.g., bash.exe-3.1$ export PLPLOT_DRV_DIR=$(pwd)/drivers bash.exe-3.1$ printenv |grep PLPLOT PLPLOT_DRV_DIR=/z/home/wine/newstart/build_script/build_dir-1.6.1/epa_build/Source/comprehensive_test_disposeable/shared/build_tree/drivers but (as expected) got the exact same results. In sum, to figure out this platform difference it is time for both of us to start using the -debug option and dig through the code to throughly understand how the *.driver_info files are accessed and used with or without PLPLOT_DRV_DIR set.
