Honestly I haven't tried to compile clean sources yet, as the compilation itself is quite lengthy on my machine. I just fetched the latest source package (5.9.3-1.1) using apt-get source and compiled it with "fakeroot ./debian/rules binary" The output of the compilation phase (invoked with "./maxima-local") is a full working maxima that doesn't display the bug. On the other hand, the final output (installed with "dpkg -i ../maxima_5.9.3-1.1_powerpc.deb" and invoked by typing just "maxima") doesn't start, printing: Unrecoverable error: Segmentation violation.. Aborted I tried to disable stripping, by deleting any dh_strip line in debian/rules, to no avail: the bug in the final package is still there.
