This is easily fixed by replacing the > accentuated character in the French comment (s/gérer/gerer/). Thanks for this "bug" report. I translated the comment into english in the upstream but this change won't be taken in account in the version 4.1 of Scilab (which should be released today or tomorrow). I also made this change in the trunk of Scilab.
I commited the change also in the debian svn for scilab but I saw here http://packages.qa.debian.org/s/scilab.html "Not touching package, as requested by freeze (contact debian-release if update is needed)" What should I do ? > * A second FTBFS occurs afterwards in the file > ./routines/Javasci/javasci_SciStringArray.c, see the attached > build log. Java is not mandatory in Scilab. It is used when you need to use the scilab engine from a Java application (this could become a new debian package btw). Scilab compilation complains about the jni.h file. Maybe if you install libgcj4-dev, this may work but I am not sure about that. > Secondly, Etch: > > * A FTBFS occurs via the oom-killer during the use of the freshly > built ./bin/scilab binary to generate HTML documentation, see the > attached build log. I saw that bug before : http://www.scilab.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla_bug_II/show_bug.cgi?id=1483 I forwarded this error to the Scilab Mailing list. Cheers, Sylvestre
