If you mean that it wants to use "plstnd5.fnt" or "plxtnd5.fnt", then they are 
in your "source_dir/plplot/lib" (source dur being the directory, where you 
unpacked emboss-x.y.z.tar.gz).  You can set the enviromental variable by 
'export PLPLOT_DIR="directory"'-command.

Question to list. Is there a reason why the 'make install' doesn't copy these 
to emboss library dir as well as other libraries?
