install pgplot on Red Hat 3.4.3-9.EL4
 

Recently, I need install PGPLOT on my laptop, the version of my Linux is:
***********************************************************************
Linux version 2.6.9-5.EL (bhcompile@decompose.build.redhat.com) (gcc version 3.4.3 20041212 (Red Hat 3.4.3-9.EL4)) #1 Wed Jan 5 19:22:18 EST 2005

cp pgplot5.2.tar.gz /usr/local/src

cd /usr/local/src # directory for the sources

tar -zxvf pgplot5.2.tar.gz

cd pgplot

mkdir /usr/local/pgplot # create the directory for the binaries and font files

cd /usr/local/pgplot

cp /usr/local/src/pgplot/drivers.list .

vi drivers.list & # select (by removing the ! sign) the drivers to be

/usr/local/src/pgplot/makemake /usr/local/src/pgplot linux g77_gcc

Can you help me figure out it? Thanks!

Installing 'libpng-devel' should do.

Regards

Thanks,I have installed 'libpng-devel' as follow:
[root@localhost Desktop]# rpm -ivh libpng-1.2.7-1.src.rpm
warning: libpng-1.2.7-1.src.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID db42a60e
1:libpng ########################################### [100%]

maybe I installed the 'libpng-devel' unsuccessfully, because the same error appeared :
g77 -c -u -Wall -fPIC -O grexec.f
make: *** No rule to make target `png.h', needed by `pndriv.o'. Stop.

Do you know how to installed 'libpng-devel' correctly, Thank a lot!

Sorry, wrong package : first, the word -devel is missing,
second : what you got is source code for "png", see the
suffix: no .rpm but .src.rpm. (To be build with 'rpm-build')

I guess, you have no redhat licence, else please get the
package from RH.

With some experience, you will be able to set up a
repository and use 'yum' to download and install the
correct Cent OS package.

'rpm -qa | grep png' will tell, which png is installed.
Find the png-devel at http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3
Please use "Advanced Search"

Example : libpng-devel-1.2.2-28.i386.rpm
http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat....i386.rpm.html
