Package: octave2.1-forge Version: 2006.03.17+dfsg1-3 Severity: normal When calling legend on a gnuplot diagram, legend.m times out. Increasing the number at line 186 of legend.m from 20 to 100 makes it work for me, but I imagine that on other (slower?) systems, this won't be sufficient and there's a more general problem.
I found a mailing list message about a similar race condition with the test that the file has been written directly below, but nothing about this. In any case, I didn't find a solution for either problem. http://velveeta.che.wisc.edu/octave/lists/archive//bug-octave.2004/msg00959.html -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-3-686 Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages octave2.1-forge depends on: ii fftw3 3.1.2-1 library for computing Fast Fourier ii lapack3 [liblapack.so.3] 3.0.20000531a-6 library of linear algebra routines ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcln4 1.1.13-2 Class Library for Numbers (C++) ii libgcc1 1:4.1.1-21 GCC support library ii libgfortran1 4.1.1-21 Runtime library for GNU Fortran ap ii libginac1.3c2a 1.3.5-3 The GiNaC symbolic framework (runt ii libgmp3c2 2:4.2.1+dfsg-4 Multiprecision arithmetic library ii libgraphicsmagick++1 1.1.7-10 format-independent image processin ii libgraphicsmagick1 1.1.7-10 format-independent image processin ii libgsl0 1.8-2 GNU Scientific Library (GSL) -- li ii libhdf5-serial-1.6.5-0 [ 1.6.5-3 Hierarchical Data Format 5 (HDF5) ii libice6 1:1.0.1-2 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-13 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libncurses5 5.5-5 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libnetcdf3 3.6.1-1 An interface for scientific data a ii libpcre3 6.7-1 Perl 5 Compatible Regular Expressi ii libpng12-0 1.2.15~beta5-1 PNG library - runtime ii libqhull5 2003.1-2 Calculate convex hulls and related ii libreadline5 5.2-2 GNU readline and history libraries ii libsm6 1:1.0.1-3 X11 Session Management library ii libstdc++6 4.1.1-21 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-4 X11 client-side library ii octave2.1 1:2.1.73-13 GNU Octave language for numerical ii refblas3 [libblas.so.3] 1.2-8 Basic Linear Algebra Subroutines 3 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-13 compression library - runtime octave2.1-forge recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
