Re: Font problem in 2-lines titles with cairo terminals

My experience of linix is for Ubuntu and its faimily (lubuntu and Xbuntu).
On Unbuntu

sudo apt build-dep gnuplot

The command installs build dependencies of gnuplot which is for binary distribution.
The commnad.is perhaps also effective on Debian.
