Package: octave3.0
Version: 1:3.0.0-6
Severity: important
Hi,
with latest upload (3.0.0-6), I get very weird behavior for multiple things in
Octave:
-----------------
octave:1> jpgread('chess_00.jpg')
error: `jpgread' undefined near line -1 column 1
octave:2> path
Octave's search path contains the following directories:
(... stripped for bug report ...)
/home/didier/.octave/image-1.0.5/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-api-v32
/home/didier/.octave/image-1.0.5
(...)
----------------
$ ls -la /home/didier/.octave/image-1.0.5/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-api-v32/ | grep
jpgread
-rwxr-xr-x 1 didier didier 31447 2008-02-27 12:26 jpgread.oct
----------------
So jpgread (from package image-1.0.5, from octave.sourceforge.net) exists, is
in path, but
Octave can't find it.
Let's try to uninstall and re-install image-1.0.5 :
---------------
octave:6> pkg install image-1.0.5.tar.gz
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lblas-3
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure: error: Could not run mkoctfile
error: the configure script returned the following error: checking for gcc...
gcc

checking whether the C compiler works... yes
checking whether we are cross compiling... no
checking for suffix of executables...

checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes
checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes
checking for gcc option to accept ISO C89... none needed
checking for mkoctfile... mkoctfile
error: called from `pkg:configure_make' in file
/usr/share/octave/3.0.0/m/pkg/pkg.m near
line 1045, column 2
---------------
So this package is now uninstallable! (it was under 3.0.0-5).
$ locate blas-3
/etc/alternatives/libblas-3gf.a
/etc/alternatives/libblas-3gf.so
/usr/lib/libblas-3gf.a
/usr/lib/libblas-3gf.so
/var/lib/dpkg/alternatives/libblas-3gf.so
So something changed which renders Octave packages (from sourceforge at least)
uninstallable and then unuseable !
Best regards,
