-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Test Update Notification FEDORA-2007-3491 2007-11-20 17:47:32.835284 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : plplot Product : Fedora 8 Version : 5.8.0 Release : 1.fc8 URL : http://plplot.sourceforge.net/ Summary : Library of functions for making scientific plots Description : PLplot is a library of functions that are useful for making scientific plots. PLplot can be used from within compiled languages such as C, C++, FORTRAN and Java, and interactively from interpreted languages such as Octave, Python, Perl and Tcl. The PLplot library can be used to create standard x-y plots, semilog plots, log-log plots, contour plots, 3D surface plots, mesh plots, bar charts and pie charts. Multiple graphs (of the same or different sizes) may be placed on a single page with multiple lines in each graph. A variety of output file devices such as Postscript, png, jpeg, LaTeX and others, as well as interactive devices such as xwin, tk, xterm and Tektronics devices are supported. New devices can be easily added by writing a small number of device dependent routines. There are almost 2000 characters in the extended character set. This includes four different fonts, the Greek alphabet and a host of mathematical, musical, and other symbols. Some devices supports its own way of dealing with text, such as the Postscript and LaTeX drivers, or the png and jpeg drivers that uses the Freetype library. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Update to plplot 5.8.0 "Stable" release. Changes from previous 5.7.4 are: - cairo devices The xwinttf driver has been renamed xcairo. In addition most of the other devices that are theoretically possible with Cairo have been implemented. These are a PostScript device (pscairo), a PNG device (pngcairo), a PDF device (pdfcairo), an SVG device (svgcairo), and a memory device (memcairo). The cairo device driver is still considered experimental as a whole. Known issues include improper text rendering with svgcairo and memcairo not working at all so those two devices are disabled by default. The pngcairo, pscairo, and xcairo devices appear to work without problems and also give outstanding-looking antialiased and hinted results so are enabled by default. The pdfcairo device appears to work reasonably well so is enabled by default although it is not as mature as the other Cairo devices that are enabled. - plmeta/plrender The combination of the plmeta device and the plrender application that renders plmeta results is unmaintained and has some known issues with strings, aspect ratio changes, and fonts. Therefore, the plmeta device is no longer shipped. Furthermore, plrender is not shipped as well. - plmtex3/plptex3 These two functions, which were added in release 5.7.3, had a number of bugs. These have hopefully been cleaned up. Example 28 demonstrates how to use these functions. The functions and the example have now been implemented for most language bindings. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Nov 19 2007 - Orion Poplawski <orion@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> - 5.8.0-1 - Update to 5.8.0 * Fri Nov 9 2007 - Orion Poplawski <orion@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> - 5.7.4-5 - Update to latest svn: adds cairo, drops plmeta, plrender - Rebuild for new octave api -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Updated packages: 92b5f362d7ff115a880568871c3eb81a102d7314 plplot-java-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc64.rpm a867296ac31d703906896ed2d50109e2aed4a575 plplot-libs-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc64.rpm 3f3ef5cc675084d341756cc35718447de35f2a1f plplot-perl-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc64.rpm 8dd7e72f0c6ee5d53e628d241ef4dc8b9b827e0e plplot-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc64.rpm a56215264c8364eca47efea693275738891a471b plplot-java-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc64.rpm 0ede5baeadff8d96261ee6ae50a3aaf206455fed plplot-tk-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc64.rpm 38b40f5f4db6722fccf7459687f19713b67e86f3 plplot-wxGTK-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc64.rpm 1a95a144d300dc33ebe3e192cd4eb136050d0ed9 plplot-gnome-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc64.rpm a521dc050d1bd2b90b7a0cf5280a854bf86a3d9f plplot-debuginfo-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc64.rpm d9ae45dd73b5e4de6d9d4f46d27bc3b022640593 plplot-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc64.rpm 213857f6473961b73abfe874c806f8b3bf6e6854 plplot-wxGTK-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc64.rpm 67a112507ee1b3f618eb2a84e42a548ade80864b plplot-gnome-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc64.rpm e0612da03bf00d699378fbabb615952d1ec8e96e plplot-tk-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc64.rpm 458616751f4c373d7e390b6435f94953df3c541f plplot-octave-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc64.rpm 6d8c46e1fb310d9acfbc0fbf6613e33a8448df8e plplot-perl-5.8.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm 82e1f8e9bbce02f8b3ac191e12a51c7036a27888 plplot-java-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm ff29b7a61a584c317e96dd15e76a0b763558a063 plplot-debuginfo-5.8.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm 13635ba25e377f98bd6011dff16201fc4d871fc9 plplot-octave-5.8.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm 392d48ebcd7a74d39946192b5e7e986fab5b4643 plplot-libs-5.8.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm 5552ab0b186a809e5ba2cd038c40195aa71cbab1 plplot-wxGTK-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm 9e62c99e64ad4f4e55dbd8e45285c978f0d9cc89 plplot-gnome-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm f69d2d796753bda36a387f2074dfbf04fce22053 plplot-5.8.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm deeb9e8c67a48548ea5a6d9f5754c071cd66fe47 plplot-java-5.8.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm 88c2e5be8e516843836dc0e2aba515f4df8b3eb1 plplot-gnome-5.8.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm 055b9b1862f642fea187e9344f348b13b6dfd1c2 plplot-wxGTK-5.8.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm 3c228dc81963f34b3169840ce6e436e5cac69860 plplot-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm d0e632118c6eeb3da9ae5be9d2d7a8f0a2529acd plplot-tk-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm 4c76d34817f5c393e99f31e7a7f05b2d6d2bc342 plplot-tk-5.8.0-1.fc8.i386.rpm d2658e90bb6011a3976c973121283e7185eefd1b plplot-gnome-5.8.0-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm af82ce272afd5dad07ec20cdaead1d08d5837782 plplot-debuginfo-5.8.0-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm 682478017bfd04a027f410ebe9d85ae6b96cee94 plplot-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm f7e18a5441f1fa794206d3f7dda794a45013b3e3 plplot-tk-5.8.0-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm 7e7d04c8ad5a5da56901988a36c80912f1045d33 plplot-libs-5.8.0-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm f7ab86b908240b29d368046e3446f590c3e9a7bc plplot-perl-5.8.0-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm 568fb8d87e3f10b7b4adf8ecdef3aa5ff144173a plplot-java-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm 4ce578db709930fd90cdf1d4855e265400f7471e plplot-java-5.8.0-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm ea474388efb329ce042b130d193ce0a96f28b4b7 plplot-gnome-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm a81cfe605af44c308576bea598075dc2c013d77a plplot-wxGTK-5.8.0-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm 0c3ca0f7afdc9eddb07a5aa8c7a72bc79fcaa2cb plplot-tk-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm dc4c27ce4ca9b9bc76fd3c1101c8f72cdceb5a4a plplot-octave-5.8.0-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm 8b5f658d1ccab00198cd8996a313a4cb2ef80d4a plplot-5.8.0-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm 17bf4e79ca41cce218e7d067d04c91cc1cfb1ca4 plplot-wxGTK-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.x86_64.rpm c74f3364f95b597d081285d2c1dd20084617c328 plplot-gnome-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc.rpm a496b3ef77b79230c2a3f2e293217c1da3b8af49 plplot-wxGTK-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc.rpm 01f441a447abe17c3e4329cb58b2fdab87d98d14 plplot-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc.rpm 6573a2e19e7e1cc997c077927bd88a02b2f7ad42 plplot-tk-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc.rpm 9adc123f99e292d90f3b5bb7a579067cae390f59 plplot-octave-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc.rpm 0d848d07f1159ae10034f078c6a24baf42e10ee3 plplot-wxGTK-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc.rpm aac93fd42dc8b8a65af394e5e48b1ca5ad1a3218 plplot-java-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc.rpm 0f5e898e1958984fadbe6846691267d7b298d8ff plplot-tk-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc.rpm e4e43293cfd16b0cef871dc4f7bd0a39e70c102b plplot-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc.rpm 87416b4b1ee56cda22e0e8d093b72191202e2458 plplot-java-devel-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc.rpm 1761bc498053551d06237c9874be88d08f967b17 plplot-perl-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc.rpm 79e691e9bf2c9f876d2b82376588c95d5f499936 plplot-libs-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc.rpm e6ee2d56d2aefefa673c9639a9a533a25820c559 plplot-debuginfo-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc.rpm 1cae5786040c6223047036a4542f6d68f4994a05 plplot-gnome-5.8.0-1.fc8.ppc.rpm 3548b5073ad48fd7b9ffa541f65d12ebc794f0bb plplot-5.8.0-1.fc8.src.rpm This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
