Dear PLplot developers,
When running the non-interactive tests for the Octave binding, it is
preferable to run them with the --no-gui option of octave. This allows
headless systems (without access to an X server) to run the tests. This
is the case for the autobuilders of Debian. BTW, I am currently applying
the patch attached to this message to the Debian package for PLplot and
you might be interested in applying it to the PLplot source as well.
Best,
Rafael Laboissière
