Package: maxima
Version: 5.15.0-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


Maxima seems to hang indefinitely after the first input line. Here's an example
session (Text within <> is my comments):

---
matsk:~$ maxima

Maxima 5.15.0 http://maxima.sourceforge.net
Using Lisp GNU Common Lisp (GCL) GCL 2.6.7 (aka GCL)

Other information:
- I have tried to downgrade maxima to version 5.10.0-6, but the error remains.
- I also get the same error in my i386 change-root (sid, same package version)
- Purging and reinstalling does not seem to help.
- It worked a couple of weeks ago, so it seems that some upgrade has broken
  it (sorry I can't give more useful information about this...)

Regards,
Mats Klingberg
