I have the latest pgplot libraries installed, including the corrections for 64-bit architecture and the c-wrapper. All the demos run fine so this seems to be working. My LD_LIBRARY_PATH env variable is set and includes the standard paths and the path for the pgplot libraries. MY PGPLOT_DIR env variable is also set... I am confused... :-s

A couple of barely-educated guesses, from odd notes and memory of similar problems.

1. Try rebuilding your pgplot c lib, using g77 instead of gcc. 

# make a build subdir in the toplevel of the pgplot src, then
../makemake ../   linux  g77_gcc

2. A bug in the Perl module, possibly related to the 64-bit stuff. I would contact the author.

3. When you built your pgplot c lib, there may be some stray header for an older version earlier in the search path, which was accidently used. Usually /usr/local/lib is found first, but some odd glitch may be occurring.

I would look at number 1 first.

I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth. Cogito ergo sum a bum
