Lifted from GitHub:
PG2PLplot README
The idea of this library is to facilitate the transition from Fortran code linked against PGPlot to linking it against PLplot, which is open source...

And from /usr/share/doc/plplot/README:

...software package for creating scientific plots whose <UTF-8> plot symbols and text are limited in practice only by what Unicode-aware system fonts are installed on a user's computer.

Typical use after installation would look like this:
$ gfortran -lplplotfortran -lpg2plplot code.f90 -o program

Before update tried this:
# urpmi pg2plplot
....
  lib64pg2plplot0                5.13.0       3.mga7        x86_64  
  lib64plplotfortran0            5.14.0       5.mga7        x86_64  
  pg2plplot                      5.13.0       3.mga7        x86_64  

which looks odd.

The development packages also showed a mix of 5.12, 5.13 and 5.14 dependencies so I guess this is normal.

Updated the packages as listed - 16 packages installed.

The various example programs in the /usr/share/doc directories need a module file called plfortrandemolib which cannot be opened for reading even by root and it is not clear whether these would be relevant to testing in any case.

Have to leave this there - OK on basis of clean install.

Thanks for the test, there may be an issue indeed, the versioning should be consistent. I'll have a look!

Comment 3 Chris Denice 2020-03-06 18:29:43 CET

Ok, sorry, everything is fine :)

lib64plplotfortran0 is not a pg2plplot package but a plplot package and their versions are unrelated, but yet coincidentally similar :)
