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.
Please, consider the improved version of the patch attached to this message. Besides the --no-gui option, it also passes option --no-window-system to Octave, what is the appropriate for running the tests on headless systems.
Best, Rafael Laboissière
