I need to have the unstable tree enabled in order to install some of the packages I need. However, I am having a problem with crashes in Octave. My research on this implies it is related to the version of graphicsmagick in the unstable tree, but may not be a problem with the version in the stable tree.
Is there a way I can reinstall Octave using just stable tree version of graphicsmagick? If anyone is interested, here is the crash report I am getting which seems to be related to the combo of Octave 3.2.4 and graphicsmagic 1.3.12-1. More importantly, I want to try it with the latest version that is supposed to work which is graphicsmagick 1.3.7-2. Here is the crash report.
