[Fink-beginners] Why does Gnuplot depend on X11?

[gxs <gx...@mb...>]

Hello.

I wanted to make an Octave+Gnuplot installer using fink and
Apple's PackageMaker, and noticed that Gnuplot now depended 
on X11. If I remember correctly, it didn't in 3.8h(?) days.

Is there some reason for this? 

Since my plan was to use AquaTerm (rater than X11), I
newly installed fink and, as two experiments, 

1) changed gnuplot-3.8i.0-6.info and 'ran fink install'
2) ran 'apt-get install' and 'dpkg -r --force-depends 
   system-xfree86' (because my OS X box has Apple's X11).

Octave/Gnuplot seemed to work fine in both experiments, 
hence my question above.
