Hello, We fixed this problem in Scilab 4.1 which will be released very soon (workaround in the scilab code). We will then be able to use gfortran again.

> > -->a=1-1E-16 > a = 0 I know where is problem is from. It is a bug from gfortran (gcc) 4.1 Reported here : http://www.scilab.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla_bug_II/show_bug.cgi?id=1985 http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28354 Unfortunately, gfortran 4.2 is not yet included in debian (at least as far as I know). A workaround is to use g77 (which is the version that we use to create the binary of scilab). I commited this change on svn.debian.org (and also fixed a problem for Scilab under GNU/Debian under Alpha http://experimental.debian.net/fetch.php?&pkg=scilab&ver=4.0-7&arch=alpha&stamp=1162048092&file=log&as=raw ) Torsten: please let me know if you are unhappy about using g77 instead of gfortran.

Package: scilab Version: 4.0-7 Severity: important Hello Torsten, In a new scilex session: -->a=1-1E-16 a = 0. -->10*a ans = 10. a is incorrectly displayed as 0. This is very confusing.
