Package: gnuplot
Version: 4.6.0-4
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

the following interactive steps

$ gnuplot
gnuplot> set term cairolatex mono dash standalone pdf
Terminal type set to 'cairolatex'
Options are ' pdf standalone noheader blacktext nobackground fontscale 0.6 monochrome dashed size 5.00in, 3.00in '
gnuplot> set output 'test1.tex'
gnuplot> plot sin(x), cos(x)
gnuplot> exit
$ pdflatex test1
[...]
$ evince test1.pdf

lead me to a nice plot with a RED continuous line for the sine and an
ALMOST INVISIBLE GREEN line for the cosine

on the other hand the underlying pdfcairo driver honors the mono kw,
so that it seems an upstream fix should be easy

thank you for your attention,
                                                                gb
