Description
I installed gnuplot under os/x 10.6.8. Everything installed OK, without errors, but when I run gnuplot is can not find aquaterm. When I run "set terminal" from gnuplot aquaterm is not listed. If I check "port installed" Aquaterm is listed and labled as active.
Suggestions?
Many thanks!

I might need some further hints, but could it be that you are trying to install gnuplot +universal ad aquaterm is not built as universal? I'm blindly guessing here. Did you install gnuplot 4.6.0?
Can you please try
port -v install gnuplot
(or just the configure part of it) and find the following three lines in output?
checking for Apple MacOS X... yes checking for aqtInit in -laquaterm... yes ... aqua terminal: yes

I tried to install gnuplot with +universal now, but I cannot reproduce the behaviour. I would say that missing aquaterm is a pretty much "common problem" outside of macports (since ./configure doesn't find it if it resides in /opt/local/lib and no -L/opt/local/lib flag is specified), but I'm unable to reproduce it within macports as long as /opt/local/lib/libaquaterm.dylib is present and points to an existing location.
I will submit a few more patches for updating AquaTerm and fixing the behaviour (see https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3476165&group_id=2055&atid=302055), but I definitely need more input to be able to diagnose what exactly went wrong in your case.
