So far, `PGFPlotsX` appears to be the lonely package that actually produces plots for Windows and Linux on Julia 0.7.0. All the other packages either don’t install, or crash when plotting is attempted.

Is it only me, or is it what everyone is seeing at the moment?

PyPlot works on Windows 10 64bit, Plots with GR backend as well (but it acted up once).

PyPlot also works on Linux (Ubuntu 14.04). Using Conda. But one or two warnings left.
