gnuplot 4.6 install mac osx 10.7

Hi,

I get somme issue intalling gnuplot 4.6.1 on Mac osx 10.7.5
I needed gif animation so I installed this new version instead of the native one.

I followed instructions on a web site making me install:
zlib
libpng
libjpeg
FreeType
libgd

After that gnuplot works with terminal gif. But only with that one!

For example when I'm trying to use png terminal I get this error:

libpng warning: Application built with libpng-1.2.41 but running with 1.5.4
gd-png error: cannot allocate libpng main struct


Can you help me please?

[I moved this thread to the Unix section since the application is being run from the Terminal]

The problem seems to be that you have a more recent version of libpng than the application expects.

Maybe rebuild the application (will require a compiler) - or (easier) try installing via Fink or MacPorts
