I second that (and further I might suggest looking at the
tools Fedora packagers use, like fedpkg).

It's also worth looking at the open bugs for gnuplot.  There
is one filed by the upstream monitoring system to update to
a 5.2.x release:

    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1457252

There is some discussion about why this hasn't been done
yet, as well as potential patches and a pull request with
the required changes.  The PR is now a few minor releases
behind, but updating it to the latest release would likely
be the easiest part of the process.

As mentioned in the bug report, there are quite a few
packages which depend on gnuplot.  Those packages likely
need to be rebuilt against the new gnuplot.
