I am running PC-BSD and have tried to use the "pkg-add" command to=20
install "gretl" on my system, as the following transcript shows.

It appears that there is something about the "pdflib" package and or=20
port that might need to be repaired, or "gnuplot" or ??

Could you please give me some advice on how to proceed so that "gretl"=20
can be installed successfully on my system??

Thanks!

John

PDFLib cannot be packaged and distributed. You have to build it from
sources.
