in reply to PDL::Graphics::PLplot fails on install

Either there is a nasty bug in that package, or something is very wrong with your build environment. That error indicates that the test scripts, which are supposed to be run under special settings so they pick up the freshly-built extension, are not finding the module.

    The package was extracted from PDL, which needed sub-packages to make a dummy build rather than terminate the configure process. That dummy-build behaviour led to what was reported here, which is the false appearance of successful installation. That behaviour has just been removed, and that will be reflected in the upcoming PDL::Graphics::PLplot 0.77.
