Here you go Ed et al:

This below installs a fully functioning pgplot on my Big Sur ARM Mac in 
/usr/local/pgplot. I expect it will also work the same on Big Sur Intel. You 
need to have prerequisites:
1. Macports X11 installed in the usual place under /opt/…  (I have xorg-server 
1.20.10)
2. gfortran installed in /usr/local/... (I have version '11.0.0 20201128 
(experimental)’ installed from http://hpc.sourceforge.net)
Things are dynamically linked.


# Run these shell commands to install pgplot
curl --remote-name https://astronomy.swin.edu.au/~karl/pgplot/pgplot531.tar.gz
curl --remote-name https://astronomy.swin.edu.au/~karl/pgplot/pgplotpatch.diff
tar xvf pgplot531.tar.gz
cd pgplotsrc
patch  -p 1 -i ../pgplotpatch.diff
SRC=$PWD
sudo mkdir /usr/local/pgplot
cd  /usr/local/pgplot
sudo cp $SRC/drivers.list .
sudo $SRC/makemake $SRC/ darwin gfortran_cc_BigSur
sudo make
sudo make clean
./pgdemo1 # Works



I hope that can be passed on to the Macports, Homebrew people to take what 
tricks they need from this. I guess the patch and the latest hard to find 
pgplot tarball is the most important thing. The patch selects drivers that work 
and are relevant today, fixes up the makefile generator, and changes one line 
of code in the png driver to avoid an error.

cheers

Karl
