CVS compilation

[Wolf Drechsel]

Hello everybody,

I have to apologize for a probabely quite stupid question:

I'd like to use gnuplot 4.3 on my Mac 10.4.11 - which is not yet  
available as a port. One can obtain it via CVS - but on my machine  
the compilation results in several errors I cannot resolve. So I  
wonder whether it would be the easier way to do it using macports.

The CVS commands to obtain gnuplots are:

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous at gnuplot.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/gnuplot  
login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous at gnuplot.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/ 
gnuplot co -P gnuplot

Can anybody give me a hint whether it is possible to compile from  
that source using the macports basis - and how to do it?

Thanks and greetings,

Wolf

P.S.:

There is a script to install th gnuplot CVS version. It gave me the  
errors I wrote above, but maybe anybody can read something from it:

#! /bin/sh
#
cd /Users/"$(whoami)"/Desktop/

simply delete -with-x=no option"

fink and check if there is the sym link in /usr/lib :

echo
