[Plplot-devel] Problems with installed plserver

[Alan W. I. <ir...@be...>]

Vince,

For installed versions of plserver I get the following error now if I
attempt to execute it from an arbitrary directory.
********
/usr/local/plplot/bin/plserver
(*AppInit) failed: Can't find a usable plplot.tcl in the following
directories:
    /usr/lib/plplot5.1.0/tcl ./lib/plplot5.1.0/tcl ./lib/plplot5.1.0/tcl
./library ./library ./plplot5.1.0/tcl/library ./plplot5.1.0/tcl/library



This probably means that plplot wasn't installed properly.
********

If I

setenv PL_LIBRARY /usr/local/plplot/lib/plplot5.1.0/tcl

the problem disappears.

I happened to have a plplot version lying around from 4 July, and it does
not have this problem.

There has been all sorts of changes in the last 11 days so things are
blurring together, but didn't you introduce this problem and didn't we
subsequently sort it out (or one very similar to it) during that time?

Alan
