Package: octave
Version: 4.0.3-2+b1
Severity: grave
Tags: upstream
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer,
I attempted to install the Octave package on my Debian Stretch system using
both Aptitude and apt-get. Both methods resulted in the same error:
Setting up octave (4.0.3-2+b1) ...
/usr/local/libexec/octave/4.0.0/exec/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/octave-gui:
error
while loading shared libraries: libgl2ps.so.0: cannot open shared object
file:
No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing package octave (--configure):
The .deb file seems to be looking for the wrong version of the lib file. The
newer version is libgl2ps.so.1
I set up a soft link from the old version to the new, re-ran the install and
now get a new error that the installer can't find libcholmod.so.2.1.2.
Maybe the .deb file is completely out of date.
