Description Ulrich Müller gentoo-dev 2009-03-12 23:09:57 UTC
In Portage since October 2008, no issues since several months. So about time to stabilise this version. Thanks in advance.

Changes in gnuplot-4.2.4-r1.ebuild:
- Depend on wxGTK-2.8* (instead of 2.6*)
- Do not build the tutorial with USE=-doc (fixes bug 244693)
