Hi Orion:

Thanks for that report.  I will try to build Qhull 2015.2 myself to
figure out the above issue and any other incompatibility between
PLplot and that version of Qhull.  Although there is a lot of other
stuff on my agenda for this forthcoming release, I will try to get the
Qhull 2015.2-related fix(es) into that release as well.

Alan
