Package: maxima
Version: 5.12.0-1
Severity: normal
Well, enverything is in the title.
The following system cause maxima to consume more and more memory
without finding a solution.
solve([n*force*cos(alpha) + n^2 + n = X, n*force*sin(alpha) + n^2 + n =
Y], [n, force]);
When maxima try to solve this system it consume memory until someone or
something (oom-killer) stop it.
