Great!

The `-without-fixed-IP` suffix has no meaning to readers on CDash.

We cannot let that warning persist on the dashboard because it may
distract from other real warnings that show up.  You could try dropping
`BUILD_QtDialog:BOOL=1` to avoid it.  You won't need cmake-gui built
to test PLplot, and we have plenty of other builders that cover it.

Once an experimental submission is clean, please switch the model to
Nightly and schedule a cron job to run it sometime after 1:15am UTC.

We need to add a contract test to CMake's source so that one of the
tests that your nightly build runs is an entire build of PLplot.
What is your official Git repository URL?
