Dear Ubuntu, Debian and Scilab developers/maintainers! The problem is really caused by HDF5. I have just tested binary 6.0.2 build from scilab.org and compared it to scilab-6.0.1 as it came with 18.04 LTS.
The `test_run('hdf5')` fails with deb-package in 67% () of tests. Moreover the `save('data.dat')` is also fails: ``` $ scilab-cli -e "x=10; save('x.dat','x');" Scilab 6.0.1 (May 21 2019, 20:36:16) HDF5-DIAG: Error detected in HDF5 (1.10.0-patch1) thread 140183400724352: #000: ../../../src/H5G.c line 553 in H5Gget_info(): invalid argument major: Invalid arguments to routine minor: Bad value HDF5-DIAG: Error detected in HDF5 (1.10.0-patch1) thread 140183400724352: #000: ../../../src/H5D.c line 121 in H5Dcreate2(): not a location ID major: Invalid arguments to routine minor: Inappropriate type #001: ../../../src/H5Gloc.c line 253 in H5G_loc(): invalid object ID major: Invalid arguments to routine minor: Bad value HDF5-DIAG: Error detected in HDF5 (1.10.0-patch1) thread 140183400724352: #000: ../../../src/H5F.c line 749 in H5Fclose(): not a file ID major: Invalid arguments to routine minor: Inappropriate type failed to close file save: Unable to export variable 'x' in file 'x.dat'. --> ``` And `open('data.dat')` has malfunction too. It does not work with correctly prepared file with variables. Please take necessary measures to fix the issue. I'm ready to help with testing. ** Bug watch added: Scilab bugtracker #15394 http://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15394 ** Also affects: scilab via http://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15394 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1765503 Title: scilab: save, open and ATOMS system is broken in Scilab 6 on bionic, cosmic, disco and eoan To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/scilab/+bug/1765503/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
