Re: [Plplot-general] Trouble installing plplot

[David B. <stu...@gm...>]

I have an update.  I wiped everything and started over, thinking that I 
may have moved items to new directories between the widgets and plplot 
installs.  Now I am getting a fatal error in the plplot build when I run 
|mingw32-make the first time, before the install.|

|I've attached files containing the exact commands executed and their 
source (websites), and a file containing the error.|

|Thank you for your help.|
