How To Install plotutils on Fedora 36
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install plotutils on Fedora 36.
What is plotutils
The GNU plotutils package contains software for both programmers and technical users. Its centerpiece is libplot, a powerful C/C++ function library for exporting 2-D vector graphics in many file formats, both vector and raster. It can also do vector graphics animations. Besides libplot, the package contains command-line programs for plotting scientific data. Many of them use libplot to export graphics
We can use yum or dnf to install plotutils on Fedora 36. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install plotutils.
Install plotutils on Fedora 36 Using dnf
Update yum database with dnf using the following command.
sudo dnf makecache --refresh
After updating yum database, We can install plotutils using dnf by running the following command:
sudo dnf -y install plotutils
Install plotutils on Fedora 36 Using yum
Update yum database with yum using the following command.
sudo yum makecache --refresh
After updating yum database, We can install plotutils using yum by running the following command:
sudo yum -y install plotutils
How To Uninstall plotutils on Fedora 36
To uninstall only the plotutils package we can use the following command:
sudo dnf remove plotutils
