This is a gnuplot error. The problem is that the the gnuplot app is unable to locate the proper version of fontconfig libraries it is expecting to find.

I suggest you use a package manager to install both gnuplot and octave.

I installed gnuplot, but when I try to plot in Octave, it crashes and prints out the following:
