Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: maxima
Ubuntu 6.06.1, kernel 2.6.15-28-686
Maxima 5.9.2 from package 5.9.2-2ubuntu3 (dapper-updates)
The help commands 'describe' or '?' cause an error and don't work.
If libc6-dev is installed the problem disappears, but this library is neither a
dependency of maxima nor a suggested/recommended package. To reproduce:
Make sure libc6-dev is not installed.
:~$ maxima
Maxima restarted.

The same happens with the alternative command '?'
