Hi Rudolf,
Thanks for the detailed report.
I've fixed optware libgd cross build, now gnuplot should use correctly use libgd and its dependencies. I've also upgraded gnuplot to the latest in the process.

> In order to create a diagram as PNG file together with a nice looking FreeType font (bitstream Vera), you have to install the following packages with ipkg:
> 1. gnuplot (ipkg-opt: gnuplot)
> 2. ipkg-opt: libgd
> 3. libfreetype6 (ipkg-opt: freetype)
> 4. libfontconfig1 (ipkg-opt: fontconfig)
> 5. libexpat1 (ipkg-opt: expat)
> 6. libpng12-0 (ipkg-opt: libpng)
> 7. ipkg-opt: ttf-bitstream-

> Unfortunately in a new build from optware "gnuplot" the Freetype, PNG and JPG support was canceled, but you can use gnuplot from the ipkg packages which still include that. That also means you have to use all libraries from /usr/lib, but there "libgd" ist missing, so you have to symlink it from /opt/lib. It took me several days to figure that out.

> In order to make it straight forward, it would be nice to include in the optware "gnuplot" the Freetype, PNG and JPG support, as it is in the ipkg "gnuplot" package. That is maybe something for Brian ;-)
