Package: octave-plplot
Version: 5.10.0+dfsg-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
I've tryied to use plplot from Octave on Jessie. Octave and
octave-plplot are installed. Starting octave and running
"toggle_plplot_use cases the following problem:
octave:1> use_plplot
This function is deprecated. Use toggle_plplot_use instead.
octave:2> toggle_plplot_use
error: sq_string cannot be indexed with {
error: evaluating argument list element number 1
error: called from:
error: /usr/share/octave/site/m/PLplot/toggle_plplot_use.m at line 42,
column 3
Attached are to possible patches, each of them works on Octave 3.8.
patch_fix2_toggle_plplot_use.diff seems shorter and more elegant, though
I did not check compatibility with older versions of Octave.
Best regards,
Alois
