Hello! I had some trouble trying to find out why are not the Gnuplot demo files installed on my system. Naturally, I searched for an 'exmples' USE flag for Gnuplot, but saw that there is no such a flag. Digging into the .ebuild gave me an answer: the demos installation is controled by the 'doc' USE flag right now, which is a bit strange. So, I suggest using the 'examples' USE flag to install the Gnuplot demos, since these demos are examples indeed. If I understand the 'examples' USE flag meaning correctly. A slightly changes .ebuild with the 'examples' flag included is attached. Reproducible: Always
Created attachment 279199 [details] gnuplot-4.4.3-r1.ebuild An ebuild with the 'examples' USE flag to control the Gnuplot demos installation.
This seems to be a reasonable suggestion. Could you attach a diff relative to the current ebuild please?
