Package: octave2.1 Version: 2.1.72-6 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
After upgrading octave today, it no longer starts at all. Reverting back to octave2.1_2.1.72-5_i386.deb makes it work again. This happens on at least two different machines. I have not done any further bug hunting, but can do so if asked to. 22:24|leka% octave GNU Octave, version 2.1.72 (i486-pc-linux-gnu). Copyright (C) 2005 John W. Eaton.
