--- Begin Message ---Package: maxima Version: 5.10.0-6 Severity: grave Tags: l10n Justification: renders package unusable Maxima on my system decided to stop starting/working recently. I am running debian etch (4.0) stable (i386). Here is what happens: $ maxima Maxima encountered a Lisp error: Error in SETQ [or a callee]: 0 and 2 are illegal as :START and :END for the sequence "". Automatically continuing. To reenable the Lisp debugger set *debugger-hook* to nil. Error in SUBSEQ [or a callee]: The tag RETURN-FROM-DEBUGGER is undefined. Fast links are on: do (use-fast-links nil) for debugging Broken at CONDITIONS::CLCS-UNIVERSAL-ERROR-HANDLER. Type :H for Help. 1 (Continue) Maxima top-level 2 (Abort) Return to top level. dbl:MAXIMA>> I have tried the following, unsuccesful steps, so far: 1) Uninstall and purge the package and reinstall it using apt-get. 2) Try running maxima as a different user. However on another system (32bit) that I have running also debian etch stable, maxima seems to be working so apparently this seems to be a system specific problem. After LOTS of searching I realised that the problem was due to the localisation settings. In the past I was running with the locale set to posix. Here are my current settings: $ locale LANG=el_GR.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE=el_GR.UTF-8 LC_NUMERIC=el_GR.UTF-8 LC_TIME=el_GR.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE=el_GR.UTF-8 LC_MONETARY=el_GR.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8 LC_PAPER=el_GR.UTF-8 LC_NAME=el_GR.UTF-8 LC_ADDRESS=el_GR.UTF-8 LC_TELEPHONE=el_GR.UTF-8 LC_MEASUREMENT=el_GR.UTF-8 LC_IDENTIFICATION=el_GR.UTF-8 LC_ALL= When I unset all those variables (or set the locale to posix) maxima works fine again. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.21asrock Locale: LANG=el_GR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=el_GR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages maxima depends on: di gnuplot-nox 4.0.0-5 A command-line driven interactive Versions of packages maxima recommends: ii gv 1:3.6.2-3 PostScript and PDF viewer for X pn maxima-share <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 4300 @ 1.80GHz The kernel has smp support but otherwise normal 32bit kernel that has been running for many months.
