	Unfortunately, I didn't receive a copy.

	(I'm unsure if Debian's netiquette says anything about Cc: to
	BUGNO-submitter at bugs.debian.org, but I'd appreciate a copy
	anyway.)

	The issue I was reporting (quoted below) is indeed still there.

    The ‘x11’ and ‘wxt’ drivers are quite distinct, and one may opt to
    install one of them but not other, which is clearly impossible when
    they belong to the same package.

	The problem is that the gnuplot-x11 package offers both the
	‘x11’ and ‘wxt’ packages, and thus has all the dependencies for
	both.  In some circumstances, I'd like to avoid dependencies on
	GTK and Pango, which are brought by the wxWidgets-based driver.

	Isn't it possible to build a single /usr/bin/gnuplot binary with
	all the relevant support for all the graphical interactive
	terminals supported by Debian, and then provide the necessary
	lib/gnuplot/ driver binaries in three separate packages
	(gnuplot-x11, gnuplot-wxt, gnuplot-qt)?

	It would also make the descriptions of the binary packages less
	confusing, cf. Christoph Bersch:

    I think the current configuration can also confuse users, because
    the names suggest, that only X11 and qt are supported as interactive
    terminals:

	TIA.
