When trying to build gnuplot-3.8j I got the following error: xemacs -batch -q -no-site-file -l ./dot.el -f batch-byte-compile gnuplot-gui.el xemacs: relocation error: xemacs: undefined symbol: SoundFileInfo make[2]: *** [gnuplot.elc] Error 127 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... xemacs: relocation error: xemacs: undefined symbol: SoundFileInfo make[2]: *** [gnuplot-gui.elc] Error 127 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gnuplot-3.8j/work/gnuplot-3.8j.0/li sp' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gnuplot-3.8j/work/gnuplot-3.8j.0' make: *** [all] Error 2 !!!

Which version of xemacs do you have? Try re-emerging the latest version of xemacs.
Hi, I had a similar problem, well actually exactly the same problem. I decided to compile gnuplot without lisp support and all went well. I changed the ebuild by replacing the line: myconf=" --with-gd --with-plot=/usr/lib" with: myconf=" --with-gd --with-plot=/usr/lib --without-lisp-files" where I added "--without-lisp-files" Hope this helps Gary
I also get problems building this version of gnuplot, apparently because of xemacs. Output I get from attempting to emerge gnuplot ends thus: make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/gnuplot-3.8j/work/gnuplot-3.8j.0/docs' Making all in lisp make[2]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/gnuplot-3.8j/work/gnuplot-3.8j.0/lisp' xemacs -batch -q -no-site-file -l ./dot.el -f batch-byte-compile gnuplot.el xemacs -batch -q -no-site-file -l ./dot.el -f batch-byte-compile gnuplot-gui.el xemacs -batch -q -no-site-file -l ./dot.el -f batch-byte-compile info-look.el Compiling /var/tmp/portage/gnuplot-3.8j/work/gnuplot-3.8j.0/lisp/gnuplot-gui.el...Compiling /var/tmp/portage/gnuplot-3.8j/work/gnuplot-3.8j.0/lisp/info-look.el...Compiling /var/tmp/portage/gnuplot-3.8j/work/gnuplot-3.8j.0/lisp/gnuplot.el...While compiling toplevel forms in file /var/tmp/portage/gnuplot-3.8j/work/gnuplot-3.8j.0/lisp/gnuplot.el: !!

Are you still getting this build failure with media-gfx/gnuplot-3.8j-r1? I have xemacs installed and successfully emerged gnuplot with no problems. If you do still get this error could you please post your emerge info too.
Crumbs. I'd forgotten all about this bug. ISTR that I fixed it by unmerging xemacs and xemacs-packages-sumo. Then emerge xemacs xemacs-packages-sumo gnuplot. So I'm guessing it was something in the packages that were at fault, not gnuplot. I've just tried emerging gnuplot again, and I have no problems. Thanks.
As neither of us are getting an error with the new ebuild I will close this bug.
