Hi everyone, I installed gnuplot the other day and then I tried to plot something and it didn't work. Then I figured that the installed gnuplot starts without any terminal: Terminal type set to 'unknown' so if I choose a different terminal, like "set terminal x11" then it plots fine. Is this because of a bug in the installation??? It's probably nothing but I wanted to let you know about this problem. aa

Do you have aquaterm installed? Rainer
No, I don't. Does it make any difference? aa On Mar 24, 2008, at 3:58 PM, Rainer Müller wrote:

It is a native Cocoa terminal for gnuplot and my gnuplot installation seems to use it automatically. At least I never had to set terminal myself.

Well, gnuplot depends on aquaterm, but for some reason I don't have it in the system (I don't know why, I usually use the clean after I build the application). This is what it gives me when I try to install it: garyw:~ aaragon$ sudo port install aquaterm ---> Activating aquaterm 1.0.1_0 Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error: /Library/ Frameworks/AquaTerm.framework/AquaTerm already exists and does not belong to a registered port. Unable to activate port aquaterm. Error: Status 1 encountered during processing. What does it mean? On Mar 24, 2008, at 5:25 PM, Rainer Müller wrote:

I cannot do that, can I? Probably that framework is used by the system. aa On Mar 24, 2008, at 6:40 PM, skip@pobox.com wrote:

I think MacPorts installed it: % grep /Library /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/aqua/aquaterm/Portfile system "install_name_tool -change /Library/Frameworks/AquaTerm.framework/Versions/A/AquaTerm ${prefix}/lib/libaquaterm.1.dylib \ xinstall -d -m 0755 ${destroot}/Library/Frameworks ${destroot}/Library/Frameworks Skip

Nope, that's part of AquaTerm, which is not made by Apple. More probably, you installed AquaTerm either manually, or with MacPorts before, then removed MacPorts without first uninstalling AquaTerm, then reinstalled MacPorts, so that it now has no idea that it previously installed these files.
