Script to setup postinstall alternatives is actually called gnuplot-base.dash and the executable name does not look as if alternatives will use it: $ tar -x -O \ -f mirror/x86_64/release/gnuplot/gnuplot-base/gnuplot-base-5.4.rc2-0.tar.xz \ etc/postinstall/gnuplot-base.dash /usr/sbin/alternatives --install /usr/bin/gnuplot gnuplot /usr/bin/gnuplot-{BB}.exe 10 AFAIK alternatives is not going to do anything special with gnuplot-*{BB}*.exe: perhaps intended to be generated with "*$*{BB}" == "base" but missing *$*? -- Take care.
