Description Andrew Savchenko gentoo-dev 2015-05-25 15:11:14 UTC 
Hello,

gnuplot-5.0.0 has on option ofr backwards compatibility support with 4.x syntax.
Our users are demanding it since otherwise the'll have to rewrite a lot of software right now.

Proposed patches add compat USE flag to control these feature.
