Thanks for the input. From previous postings on Mac OSX and plplot I 
understand that I need to use --disable-shared. However, when shared is 
disabled, python will be disabled by the configure script. I could 
compile plplot with shared enabled, but I don't know yet whether the 
package is usable. I'll do some more testing in the next couple of days 
if I can find some time during the holidays.

Besides python, X11 and tcltk, are there any other packages needed for 
plplot?


thanks,
