[Pkg-julia-devel] Bug#978005: Julia Plots scaling error with Plots.GR

[Derek Woolverton]

Package: Julia
Version: 1.5.3+dfsg-2+b2

Plots using GR are not scaled correctly.

Plots went through a change in its handling of scaling and for a brief time
was out of sync with the Plots.GR sub-package.
Currently my installation shows
Plots v1.9.1
GR v0.49.1

I believe they added a scaling fix to Plots to match up with GR v0.53,
while Debian seems to be ahead on Plots and behind on GR.

The original issues was documented here,
https://github.com/JuliaPlots/Plots.jl/issues/3133

But in Debian, with the mis-matches of fixes, it's demonstrating the
opposite (ie plots with GR are *tiny*)  Either Plots needs to be rolled
back to 1.8, or GR moved forward

I am running Debian in WSL with the testing distribution,
Linux diginomad 4.19.128-microsoft-standard #1 SMP Tue Jun 23 12:58:10 UTC
2020 x86_64 GNU/Linux
