The problem is that, by default, it is gnuplot-nox which is installed (since it is the first in the dependency list of gnuplot). And gnuplot-nox does not work with Octave. So I am in favor of recommending "gnuplot-x11 | gnuplot-qt", and actually such a change is already committed to the VCS. Also note that since it is a Recommends and not a Depends, we are not preventing the user from using gnuplot-nox if he really wants. We are just giving sane defaults. -- Sébastien Villemot Researcher in Economics & Debian Maintainer http://www.dynare.org/sebastien Phone: +33-1-40-77-84-04 - GPG Key: 4096R/381A7594
