I tried rebuilding 2.1.72-5 locally to see if something in the packaging breaks the package, or if it is the upgrade of some build dependency that makes it chrash now. The locally built 2.1.72-5 also chrashes. There is a octave-core file generated, but I do not know what format it is. It is not an ordinary core file and it is only 11 bytes. I'm attaching it in case it can be helpful to anyone. I just started rebuilding octave again with DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS set to "nostrip noopt". Hopefully that will give some clues. -- /Martin
