Calling term->option() in init_terminal()

[<tim...@en...>]

Hi,

Ethan in particular, as you were not there to give your point of view,

Dmitri A. Sergatskov reported a problem to compile from CVS a few days=20
ago on the list. 'make' on a fresh installation fails in tutorial=20
because gnuplot_x11 is not found. This issue comes from the change for=20
the bug #1509033, trying to adress the problem with GNUTERM and drivers=20
expecting term->options() to be run before term->init() for some=20
initializations. This has caused a collateral damage : gnuplot compiled=20
with the X11 terminal now launches gnuplot_x11 on startup, even if it is=20
not used.

I send a patch to Dmitri to define GNUPLOT_DRIVER_DIR so that his=20
compilation will succeed.

But this leaves the question open : should the change for bug #1509033=20
be reverted (at the price of GNUTERM possibly causing some drivers to=20
segfault unless we check all of them), or can we live with gnuplot_x11=20
always starting and just apply the quick fix ?

Best regards,

Timoth=C3=A9e
