I think it's changed -- just tested it in 8.10. On a clean install, I get warnings on the first run, and can't produce plot output. But it seems to work on the second run OK. I tried deleting the .gretlrc file and the directory .gretl, and I get the same errors again. So there is something missing somewhere about the creation of this ~/.gretl directory.
