Release 5.2.4 source tarball is ready and can be downloaded from https://sourceforge.net/projects/gnuplot/files/gnuplot/5.2.4/gnuplot-5.2.4.tar.gz This release contains - a fix for a serious regression reported against 5.2.3 (spurious evaluation of logscale coordinates as UNDEFINED) - re-implementation of the "refresh" command to correct regressions in 5.2.0 through 5.2.3 - sanity checks for several invalid command sequences found by fuzzing - several minor bug-fixes - two recent minor changes back-ported from the development version Yes it's only been a month since 5.2.3 but I think the regression in plotting logscale axes is serious enough to warrant an immediate fix. If you want to test before/after here is a simple trigger for the error: set log y plot [1:100] x**2, 1/0 Windows binaries will follow eventually. happy gnuplotting Ethan |

Shigeharu Takeno found that In docs/titlepag.tex in gnuplot-5.2.4.tar.gz There described % 31 May 2017 Version 5.2 Version 5.2.3 (May 2018) gnuplot.pdf on SourceForge, the version number is 5.2.4 but source for document tar ball is still 5.2.3. I propose to make a fixed tar ball named like gnuplot-5.2.4-1.tar.gz.

Yes. That is true. But the content of the manual (docs/gnuplot.doc) has not changed except for one sentence about the new ARGV array variable. > I propose to make a fixed tar ball named like gnuplot-5.2.4-1.tar.gz. In the past, people have complained about relabeling the source tarball or changing its content. If a change is necessary, the policy is that we increment the patchlevel to create a new minor release version. But it seems unreasonable to create a release 5.2.5 only so that we can change the version stamp on the title page of the pdf documentation. By the way, the gnuplot.pdf on the download site itself correctly lists version 5.2.4 on the title page. I will make sure the copy linked on the main web page is correct also.

OK. I understand. However, windows binary packages now include gnuplot.pdf with incorrect version number because packaging system for windows uses pdf files generated from source. I can correct them manually. Please allow me to make corrected windows binary packages and upload on the web.
