I've said this here before.  And been attacked, pretty much by everyone.

But I was telling the truth.

When I put up any version of FBSD I usually try to install Maxima.  Which
fails because the sub-install of gnuplot fails.

I go to through various work-arounds, different things.

But Saturday I will be installing 9.0 and would like to have a successful
install.  Ideas?
