Thanks for submitting this wishlist bug report. Labplot does offer the possiblity to plot a 2D graph from data that is stored along one row in the format y1 | y2 | y3 ... Does this suit your needs well enough, or would you like me to forward the request to the upstream developer of labplot?

Bug#310695: mozilla-firefox: can't edit bookmarks
Package: mozilla-firefox Version: 1.0.4-2 Severity: normal Hi, I'm not sure if the bug I'm seeing is the same problem as #307003 or not, though the behaviour is somewhat different. I am consistently (ie through several restarts of firefox and even rebooting the computer) seeing the following: 1. When I try to "manage bookmarks" from the Bookmarks menu nothing happens. 2. When I right-click on a bookmark and choose "properties" I get the properties dialog. Clicking "OK" in the dialog sends my processsor to 100% and mozilla becomes unresponsive. It remains so until a warning dialog shows saying "A script on this page is causing mozilla to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script?". Clicking OK to abort the script and then "Cancel" on the bookmark properties dialog seems to stop the problem, but the bookmark has remained unedited. I do seem to be able to right-click in the bookmarks menu and choose to delete a bookmark. Let me know if I can provide any further information.

Bug#330120: kverbos doesn't load verbs
Package: kverbos Version: 4:3.4.2-2 Severity: important Hi, I am trying to use kverbos to practise my Spanish verbs :) I am using it with the default file of verbs that it comes with, but it is seemingly having trouble loading the verbs in the file. For most of the verbs is throws a warning dialog saying "There is a problem with the verb $VERB. Please check the verb in the edit dialog". For some of the verbs (maybe 1 in 8 or so) it works. I don't know what is causing this, and I don't know whether it is a new problem, because I have only ever looked at kverbos very briefly before. However, looking at the "edit verb list" dialog, it looks to me that maybe kverbos is not reading the list of verbs correctly from the file. It seems to have some of the Spanish mixed in with the column that is supposed to contain the other language (in my case, this should be English), and it is also not displaying the accentedhave no idea characters correctly. Maybe there is a problem with the format of the verb file, which is located in /usr/share/apps/kverbos/data/en/verbos.verbos.

Bug#320275: request for debian-science mailing list
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Package: lists.debian.org Severity: wishlist Hi, I want to request the creation of a mailing list for people using Debian to do Science to communicate with each other. This is a result of the talk I gave at Debconf5 about "Using Debian for Science Research". I've since received emails from several people, expressing interest in the general idea, and I think that it would be a good start to allow people who are interested in the use of Debian as an OS for scientific research to communicate easily via a mailing list. Name: debian-science Rationale: Research scientists and students have a fairly specific set of needs from their operating system. The aim of this list is to allow people who are interested in using Debian for science and science research to communicate about packages that are particularly useful, discuss problems that commonly occur in scientific applications, and talk about general issues that arise when using Debian for science. One possible aim of the list would be to discuss the creation of a Custom Debian Distribution for use in science research.

Bug#323337: blitz++ 0.8 doesn't work with gcc4
Package: blitz++ Version: 1:0.8-5 Severity: important Hi, I have been trying to compile my C++ code, which uses the blitz library, and I got a bunch of errors[1] in templates of blitz things that were instantiated by variables in my code. I searched on the errors I was getting, and found some discussion in the blitz++ mailing list about this problem [2][3][4]. Following the suggestion in the discussion, I downloaded the blitz++ cvs sources, compiled them and installed the library so produced. My own code now compiles with no errors, so I think that this is indeed the solution to the problem. Could you please update the Debian blitz++ package to use the sources from cvs, so that it will work with gcc4, which I understand is now the default compiler. Thanks, Helen [1] Sorry, but I've lost the log of them since I recompiled successfully just now - I will try to regenerate the errors if you really need to see them, but it'll require re-breaking stuff that I have spent all day working out how to fix, so I prefer not to do that unless you need it [2] http://www.oonumerics.org/MailArchives/blitz-support/2005/04/1333.php [3] http://www.oonumerics.org/MailArchives/blitz-support/2005/05/1350.php [4] http://www.oonumerics.org/MailArchives/blitz-support/2005/05/1352.php -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Package: kdelibs-data Version: 4:3.3.2-6.1 Severity: important Hi, I upgraded my version of kdelibs-data today, and when I rebooted, I found that a number of things were broken: - The k-menu had no application entries at all (I tried running update-menus and kbuildsycoca to fix this, but that made no difference) - The quicklauncher in kicker had lost it's buttons for the applications that I usually have there. - When I ran konqueror, the part on the left, which can show the directory structure, the bookmarks, the services, etc, was gone. - When I tried to "configure konqueror" from the settings menu nothing happened. - When I tried to run kcontrol, I got the kcontrol window with nothing in it - ie the background picture on the right was there, listing my kde version, username etc. However, there were no entries listed on the left in any of the tabs for index/search/help I reckon that there were probably more things wrong than these that I didn't happen to find. Downgrading kdelibs-data to the previous version solved all of these problems.

Just to clarify, if anyone is still wondering. I upgraded 4:3.3.2-6.1 to
4:3.4.2-1 by literally running synaptic, updating the apt sources and telling
synaptic to upgrade everything that could be upgraded (I have forgotten the
direct apt-get command for that). I think this would be a fairly common thing
to do and as Adeodato has pointed out, I was allowed to upgrade to the "wrong"
version of kdelibs-data without realising it would cause problems. I suspect
there could be many other people in this situation, if others are in the habit
of assuming that if synaptic lets them upgrade something it will be ok to
upgrade it.
Thanks for replying to quickly to this :)

Bug#292892: k3b has problems "Reading local song database"
Package: k3b Version: 0.11.19-1 Severity: normal When I start k3b, it seems to get stuck for a long time while the splash-screen says it is "Reading local song database". It used to start in seconds, now it seems to get stuck at this point for several minutes before continuing, using most of the CPU in the process. As far as I know, there is no local song database. Certainly there is nothing that should require that much processing. I'm not sure what k3b is actually doing at this point. It is certainly annoying and I wonder whether this is a slightly poorly designed feature or whether it could be symptomatic of some larger problem.

Bug#294093: kweather - can't get ICAO location information from linking webpage
Package: kweather Version: 4:3.3.2-2 Severity: normal Hi, I ran kweather and it didn't have a weather location selected. So I tried to configure it to look at the weather for Melbourne, Australia. But I didn't know the ICAO location code. When I clicked on "Lookup your ICAO Code" in the configure dialog, it took me to a webpage that doesn't have ICAO codes for Australian cities (as far as I can tell, it only has ICAO codes for US locations). So I didn't know how to tell kweather to get Melbourne's weather. I think that kweather should either link to somewhere that has worldwide ICAO location information, or it should be able to use the WMO index number that is provided by the website it links to. One curious thing is that kweather can get Melbourne's weather through the weather service page of the congfigure dialog anyway. Maybe the ICAO codes are lurking in there somewhere already.

I have now tried and failed twice to use that website to get that information (it's not very clear at all which code is the ICAO code, or that ICAO codes are not available for all locations). I suspect that other users would also be confused by this, and give up on using kweather, as a result. I did this a few months ago, and I was only trying again today because someone else was asking me about it, and having exactly the same problem with that website. I think that it would be good if kweather could use a less confusing website for finding international ICAO codes. I had a look, and found the following possibilities: http://www.airport-technology.com/icao-codes/ https://pilotweb.nas.faa.gov/qryhtml/icao/ I'm sure there would be other websites with the same information.

Bug#294725: k3b hangs then crashes on startup
Package: k3b Version: 0.11.19-1 Severity: grave Hello, This might be related to Bug#292892, since the symptoms are similar, in which case it is presumably not actually a k3b bug. But it's not exactly the same so I figured I'd better report it here. I'm not sure whether this one should be "grave" or "important", but it certainly renders k3b entirely unusable to me, so I'm going for grave for now. Sorry if I have gotten this wrong. When I start k3b, I get the splash-screen, and it gets to "Reading Local Song database". At this point it hangs, for several minutes, using most of my processor time. Then it crashes. Running k3b from the terminal produces the following output: helen:~> k3b k3b: ERROR: (K3bCdDevice) Unable to do inquiry. KCrash: Application 'k3b' crashing... zsh: alarm k3b That's all. Please let me know if I can provide any more information about this problem.

severity 294725 normal retitle 294725 k3b crashes on startup unless started by root thanks mate :) Hi, I have just realised that whatever k3b is doing when it crashes on startup, it doesn't do that when I run it as root.

Bug#294787: Could labplot handle parse errors in the function plotter more nicely?
Hi Stephen, How are things? I've gotten a bug report (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=294787) from a Debian Labplot user who is having trouble with unparseable functions entered into the function dialog when plotting 2D and 3D functions. I am wondering whether it would be possible to get Labplot to behave more nicely when that situation arises (as it surely will). Maybe labplot could do something like grab the output of whatever libary is calculating the functions, realise that it is dealing with something the library can't parse, throw a warning message dialog to the user, and stop trying to parse the unparseable thing? To see the behaviour the user is reporting, start labplot and try to plot something like "sin(x)," The comma makes it unparseable, and when Labplot has been run from the command line, all you get is many repetitions of "ERROR : parse error". Labplot appears to hang - I Ctrl-C'd it to kill it. I guess that it would not be obvious to some users what is going on in that situation, especially if they haven't run Labplot from the command line in the first place. Anyway, it's nice to see that enough people are using the Debian packages to generate some bug reports :) I hope all is well with you, Helen. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Bug#294787: labplot: problem with functions plot
Hi again Guillame,
I can't plot the default function, that was what I tried, I also tried this
without success :
2+x, x^2, sin(x)
OK, I have now managed to reproduce this problem, I think. I only get
it in situations where I would expect labplot to produce parse errors,
because I am asking it to plot something it doesn't know how to handle.
For example, labplot cannot plot the following as entered into the
Function box in the "2D Function Dialog":
2+x, x^2, sin(x)
Because it doesn't know how to handle the commas (",") in that entry.
So it produces parse errors.
Things that labplot can plot include the following, as entered
individually into that function dialog:
sin(x)
2+x
x^2
and lots of other things.
If you want to have those three plots on the same set of axes, you have
to enter them all in seperately. You cannot enter them in together,
separated by commas, which is what I think you might be doing.
If you have observed a situation where you are entering in a function to
plot that labplot should be able to parse, and it is not doing so, can
you please check it again, to be sure, and let me know about it.
(Please use the reply-to address in this email so that our discussion
continues to be logged by the Debian bug tracking system.) Please let
me know precisely what you have entered as the Function box in the
Function Dialog.
I do agree that labplot's handling of the situation when it has a parse
error entered is less than graceful. I will write to upstream to ask
for better handling of such situations.
Thanks,
Helen.

Bug#427468: mime-types / ksycoca broken after upgrade
Package: kdebase Version: 4:3.5.7-1 Severity: important Hello wise kde people :) I upgraded my system last night and when I first ran konqueror today it wouldn't work properly, seeming to not know what to do with a perfectly normal location I asked it to open. Sorry, I don't have the error message it gave me written down, but it was something that I understood to mean "I can't find my list of mime types so I don't know what to do with this location /home/helen that you are asking me to open". Anyway, I figured something was wrong with kde in general, so I ran a couple of things from konsole to see what it said. The output is below. Then, seeing the errors about KSycoca, I ran "kbuildsycoca", which seems to have fixed the problem (the last call of konqueror in my output below seems to have worked fine). However I suspect that many users wouldn't know to try this, so would be stuck with a "broken" konqueror, kwrite, and probably other kde stuff as well (hence the "important" severity call). There still seem to be problems with my system, see the errors in the output, even after running kbuildsycoca. Sending this bug to kdebase because I don't know which package it belongs to, but I suspect something deep in the workings of kde.

reopen 427468 severity wishlist reassign 427468 kdelibs4c2a thanks mate! Hi again, Thanks for the quick response :) I doubt that users would find that information file for kdelibs4c2a (in fact I doubt that most users would even know that package to report such a bug against - I certainly didn't). I suggest that you put in a debconf interaction with the user that works as follows when the relavant parts of kde are being upgraded. 1) If kde is running, warn the user that: 2) kde might need to be restarted, to avoid weird things happening, but 3) don't restart kde until you have finished updating your system (since the process updating the system might be part of kde, and we don't want to interrupt that). I think this would inform the users about the need to restart kde after an upgrade much more effectively, since they would have to acknowledge the warning as part of the install process.
