    _______________________________________________________

Details:

The warning is:
warning: print.m: pstoedit binary is not available.
Some output formats are not available.
warning: called from
    __print_parse_opts__ at line 383 column 9
    print at line 292 column 8
====================================
This warning is not appropriate since pstoedit is not used
to generate PDF,

Of course, installing pstoedit causes the warning to not appear,
but the plot is identical to the one without pstoedit.

pstoedit is not tested for in ./configure. If it is needed
for some plot formats, it should be tested for, or the
warning should only be issued if the plot requires it.

This is a minor item.
