+bugfixes
1.) Remove directory "share/gnuplot/4.2/PostScript" during deinstallation.
2.) Prevent installation of "share/texmf-local/tex/latex/gnuplot" if

Bump revision of both packages.

Changes:
3.7.3
* Major: contributed code to re-add gamma, inverse normal, and
inverse error function
* Windows specific fixes, most visibly changing the 'pause' command
to avoid cpu hogging, and updated build procedures
* Improved metapost driver
* Make Linux driver work with devfs
* Numerous bugfixes backported from development version, see ChangeLog
* A large number of documentation misprints have been fixed
3.7.2

removes the gamma, inverse normal, and inverse error
function from platforms that have no native
implementation.

epslatex, ggi (General Graphics Interface), pdf, svg
(W3C Scalable Vector Graphics)

alternative plot sizes, variable font sizes
* Updated gnugraph driver: now requires GNU plotutils 2.2
or better
* Updated eepic driver: picture environment now scales with

* Updated fig driver to fig file format 3.2
* Updated tkcanvas driver
* Fix font size option in pslatex driver
