Bug#231730: floating-point value for max_val option is broken

[Bill Allombert]

Hello Niko,

Thanks for help me out with libchart-perl!
I really want popcon.debian.org to work with Etch packages.

Something that make sense. Having 3 ticks with the same label does
not make any sense and is very confusing.

I just want a reasonable number of label (say between 2 and 20)
which have distinct integral values. The woody version did it.

My script popcon-stat.pl generate all the graphs for all the
architecture and there are a lot of variation in the number
of submissions, but all the graphs should look nice without
hand-holding.

Cheers,
Bill.
