Sorry, Bill, but another bug seems to have been introduced by these modest
changes from 2.4.4.

Here is the cmake code fragment in the PLplot cmake build system
that seems to cause the problem for 2.4.5-RC2, but not 2.4.4.

message(STATUS
"plplottcltk${LIB_TAG}_link_libraries = 
${plplottcltk${LIB_TAG}_link_libraries}"
)

add_library(plplottcltk${LIB_TAG} ${plplottcltk${LIB_TAG}_LIB_SRCS})
target_link_libraries(
plplottcltk${LIB_TAG}
${plplottcltk${LIB_TAG}_link_libraries}
)

For both cmake versions we get the following output (in fact all cmake
standard out is identical between the two versions).

-- plplottcltkd_link_libraries = 
tclmatrixd;plplotd;/usr/lib/libtcl8.4.so;/usr/lib/libitcl3.2.so;/usr/lib/libtk8.
4.so;-L/usr/X11R6/lib;-lSM;-lICE;/usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so;/usr/X11R6/lib/libXext
.so;/usr/lib/libitk3.2.so

The make result for building this library for 2.4.4 is the correct

/usr/bin/gcc  -fPIC    -shared -Wl,-soname,libplplottcltkd.so.9 -o libplplottcltkd.so.9.2.0 "CMakeFiles/plplottcltkd.dir/tclAPI.o" "CMakeFiles/plplottcltkd.dir/tclMain.o" "CMakeFiles/plplottcltkd.dir/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/plplot_cmake/bindings/tk/Pltk_Init.o" "CMakeFiles/plplottcltkd.dir/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/plplot_cmake/bindings/tk/plframe.o" "CMakeFiles/plplottcltkd.dir/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/plplot_cmake/bindings/tk/plr.o" "CMakeFiles/plplottcltkd.dir/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/plplot_cmake/bindings/tk/tcpip.o" "CMakeFiles/plplottcltkd.dir/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/plplot_cmake/bindings/tk/tkMain.o" -L/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/build_dir/bindings/tcl -L/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/build_dir/src -L/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/build_dir/lib/csa -L/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/build_dir/lib/nn -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/home/software/autotools/install/lib -ltclmatrixd -lplplotd -ltcl8.4 -litcl3.2 -ltk8.4 -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lSM -lICE -lX11 -lXext -litk3.2 -lltdl -ldl -lm -lcsirocsa -lcsironn -lqhull -lfreetype -Wl,-rpath,/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/build_dir/bindings/tcl:/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/build_dir/src:/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/build_dir/lib/csa:/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/build_dir/lib/nn:/usr/X11R6/lib:/home/software/autotools/install/lib

The make result for building this library for RC2 is the incorrect

/usr/bin/gcc  -fPIC    -shared -Wl,-soname,libplplottcltkd.so.9 -o libplplottcltkd.so.9.2.0 "CMakeFiles/plplottcltkd.dir/tclAPI.o" "CMakeFiles/plplottcltkd.dir/tclMain.o" "CMakeFiles/plplottcltkd.dir/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/plplot_cmake/bindings/tk/Pltk_Init.o" "CMakeFiles/plplottcltkd.dir/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/plplot_cmake/bindings/tk/plframe.o" "CMakeFiles/plplottcltkd.dir/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/plplot_cmake/bindings/tk/plr.o" "CMakeFiles/plplottcltkd.dir/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/plplot_cmake/bindings/tk/tcpip.o" "CMakeFiles/plplottcltkd.dir/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/plplot_cmake/bindings/tk/tkMain.o" -L/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/build_dir/bindings/tcl -L/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/build_dir/src -L/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/build_dir/lib/csa -L/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/build_dir/lib/nn -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/home/software/autotools/install/lib -ltclmatrixd -lplplotd -ltcl8.4 -litcl3.2 -ltk8.4 -llib -lSM -lICE -lX11 -lXext -litk3.2 -lltdl -ldl -lm -lcsirocsa -lcsironn -lqhull -lfreetype -Wl,-rpath,/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/build_dir/bindings/tcl:/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/build_dir/src:/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/build_dir/lib/csa:/home/software/plplot_cvs/HEAD/build_dir/lib/nn:/usr/X11R6/lib:/home/software/autotools/install/lib

Note the incorrect replacement of -L/usr/X11R6/lib in the former by -llib in
the latter.  Since that library does not exist, the make bombs out.

Sorry to be the bearer of the bad news, but hopefully this will be an easy one
to fix.
