njplot uses symbols from libm but does not link with it explicitly,
instead if relies on indirect linkage.
This causes a build error with ld --no-copy-dt-needed in ubuntu.
In principle it should also fail in debian which also uses the flag but
doesn't, I don't know why.
In order to keep the package in good shape for the future please also
fix the issue in the debian package.
A patch by Graham Inggs is available in the ubuntu bug

Thanks for considering the patch.
