[Plplot-devel] Tests of recent commits

[Alan W. I. <ir...@be...>]

"This change has been quickly tested in all the combinations of with- vs.
without-double and enable- vs. disable-dyndrivers.  More extensive tests
need to be done, though."

I took that to heart.  I tested all of Rafael's recent changes except the
very last one (removing some additional cruft from drivers/Makefile.am which
was committed after I started my tests).  In all cases I built all front
ends and all drivers except the linuxsvga one.  For the combination of
double+dynamic drivers I did the usual non-interactive test (plplot-test.sh)
as well as fairly extensive interactive tests.  For the other 3 combinations
(double+static, single+dynamic, single+static) I simply made sure I could
build and install plplot and run plplot-test.sh (the non-interactive tests)
without errors.

Anyhow, on Debian woody the recent cruft removal and simplification is still
giving us a working software build and install and working examples for a
wide variety of circumstances.

Please let us know the story on other platforms as well.
