Re: [Plplot-general] PLplot on ubuntu 14.04

Hi,



I do not know which version you actually downloaded this way, but you will probably want to use the pkg-config approach:



gcc -o myprogram myprogram.c `pkg-config -libs plplotd`



The pkg-config command was designed for this sort of things.



Regards,



Arjen

Subject: [Plplot-general] PLplot on ubuntu 14.04

Dear PLplot team,

I am trying to install plplot on Ubuntu 14.04 using
apt-get install libplplot-dev

It went through and installed the libraries. However, it only installed libplplotd.so and libplplotcxxd.so and others. When I was trying to link against plplot by -lplplot, the gcc told me that it cannot find plplot lib. I am wondering whether the Ubuntu installation package is broken for 14.04. Or, please advise me how to proceed.

Best regards

Hui Xue
