Hi Guillaume,

Normally you should have a directory ~/.Scilab.

Thanks for the tip. Actually, I didn't have a SCIHOME directory (~/.scilab didn't exist). If I launch scilab with
SCIHOME="~/.scilab" scilab
it starts fine, and it saves some configuration files in there. However even for subsequent invocations, I need to set SCIHOME in the environment, otherwise scilab doesn't launch, so looks like the SCIHOME variable is never initialized. I'll check if there was anything in SCIHOME when scilab didn't crash before commit a715ab13a22.

    Hi,

    Just remove your SCIHOME directory and Scilab will start.

    Hello,

    in preparation for the 5.4 release, I've been compiling trunk
    pretty regularly on gentoo. Everything was working fine until
    recently. However scilab doesn't even start now. It compiles and
    install fine, but bombs at startup. If I launch it from the
    command line, I just see the following exception printed:
    java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException

    I've tracked it down to this commit (first commit when it started
    to break):

     commit a715ab13a22b5e53d6d4f811ea44a24770ba7097
    Author: Calixte DENIZET <[email protected]
    <mailto:[email protected]>>
    Date:   Wed Sep 5 11:40:59 2012 +0200

        Bug 11838 fixed: Maximized state of a window was not saved in
    quitting

    The commit seems innocuous enough, but it completely breaks
    scilab for me. Any idea what might cause this?

    Thanks,
    Guillaume
