Package: octave
Version: 4.0.0-5+b3
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I obtain plots with fully black plot area when using gnuplot backend and
saving figures to PNG or PDF files (by either saveas or print). It
probably started to happen after upgrading to gnuplot5. It is pity because
the gnuplot toolkit is superior to FLTK or QT with respect to special font
and font effects (sub/superscripts) handling. Note that gnuplot
itself/standalone works fine.
According to http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?42838, something similar (but only
for PDFs) was discussed upstream and was considered fixed.
Best regards
Andrei
