Hello Debian Developers! Thanks for your work. I'm the developer responsible for upgrading the instrument software referenced by https://github.com/sso-aat/libpgplot-perl/wiki
On porting to Giza, here are the regressions I found and my analysis; 1. plot window not staying on display is because Giza does not implement the PGPLOT /xs or /xserve device, instead collapsing it into the same as the /xw or /xwindow device. https://github.com/danieljprice/giza/blob/a6cefc4c0b1e2060ed40ff6f0a46525365952674/src/giza-drivers.c#L897 2. content rendering - background; our existing plot scripts showed a black background, but on using Giza the background changed to white; not investigated, probably requires effort porting the script from PGPLOT to Giza, 3. content rendering - curve colours; this also changed, not investigated, 4. content rendering - fonts; the size of text changed, not investigated, 5. content rendering - overall dimensions; the width and height of the plot changed, not investigated. It was cheaper in developer time to undo #869135 and create a local derivative package. In discussions with astronomers, they've told me Giza is not a drop-in replacement, but rather a poor substitute. Until this week, I had no idea. Hope you can do something about it. Let me know if you have any questions.
