Comment(by kurtjaeke@…):
I didn't try. I upgraded only to get
[http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3441899&group_id=2055&atid=102055
this bug] fixed, because it breaks lua-tikz, which is what I use for my
plots.
Making gnuplot depend on a "devel" port does not seem a good idea to me.
"devel" ports may introduce disruptive changes in a high frequency,
requiring somebody to clean up in this very frequency. MacPorts is about
packaging and distribution, so the aim should be maximum stability.
Therefore, even a hypothetical risk should be avoided IMHO.
As I proposed before: we should upgrade gnuplot to 4.6.0, and take care of
the other enhancements in separate tickets.
