The version sci-visualization/gnuplot-5.4.2 has release notes since june here: https://sourceforge.net/p/gnuplot/gnuplot-main/ci/5.4.2/tree/RELEASE_NOTES
Compiles fine with a shollow copy rename of the old gentoo ebuild to my locali overlay, also with lua5-4 enabled. But I haven't tested running this: --- Calculating dependencies .... done!

That wasn't included upstream seemingly?
Currently waiting for review of wxwidgets.eclass. The new ebuild can be EAPI 8 then. https://archives.gentoo.org/gentoo-dev/message/ff9386c0c4f1a62d63fdd8b67090eacb (In reply to Ulenrich from comment #1) > I wonder why the both very old patches do patch! That wasn't included > upstream seemingly? Thank you for bringing this up. The wxwidgets ("underlinking") patch was introduced when fixing bug 562486. Apparently it is no longer needed, because the problem has been fixed upstream: https://sourceforge.net/p/gnuplot/gnuplot-main/ci/9b7771120f5b973109a34255d98008c45cb04f84 About the "picins" patch, upstream should be aware of the problem: https://sourceforge.net/p/gnuplot/mailman/gnuplot-beta/thread/alpine.LNX.2.00.1109120925190.749%40waverley.Belkin/ Our fix is from bug 577828 comment #4. It is not perfect because it changes appearance of the resulting document (and not to the better).
