The reason was may be that I did not have X11 libraries and developpement headers installed. Thus I installed XFree86-prog/XFree86-prog-4.3.0-8 which should contain that but it does not have changed anything when compiling gnuplot 3.8j after installing XFree86-prog/XFree86-prog-4.3.0-8 . I think XFree 4.3.0 does not work here because when I unistalled XFree 4.2, I cannot start XFree! Could be the reason why it's not working? By the way I don't have the commande ldconfig which may be needed for the system to be informed of newly installed librairies? -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
