How did you install plplot (src, rpm, ...)? If you install from rpm, you
also need plplot-devel to build apps that use the library.

yep, that was it. I think is not clear from the homepage of GDL that
the devel libraries are also neccesary. I had the same problem with
ImageMagick, were I had to install not only
ImageMagic-devel
but
ImageMagick-c++-devel
But, here we are! Let's give it a try.
BTW, is this the right Groups to ask questions on GDL or there is
another place, e.g. a Forum?
Thanx,
Andres
