Hi,
I found the "module not found." message inside the file funcmanager.cpp
[0]. It does a verification which is a file existence check against the
start file of the module [1].
I found that the modules giving errors don't have start files in Debian.
For example,
"/usr/share/scilab/modules/graphic_objects/etc/graphic_objects.start"
doesn't exists in unstable but exists in stable.
As this start file is empty, I think the cause of this is the line in
debian/rules removing empty files [2] which was added in version 6.0.1-4
[3].
I tried to run scilab-cli after having manually created empty .start and
.stop files and the cli was working.
I've done this a root:
```
SCI_MODULE="graphic_objects" ; mkdir
/usr/share/scilab/modules/$SCI_MODULE/etc; touch
$_/$SCI_MODULE{.start,.quit}
SCI_MODULE="commons" ; mkdir /usr/share/scilab/modules/$SCI_MODULE/etc;
touch $_/$SCI_MODULE{.start,.quit}
SCI_MODULE="ui_data" ; mkdir /usr/share/scilab/modules/$SCI_MODULE/etc;
touch $_/$SCI_MODULE{.start,.quit}
SCI_MODULE="graph" ; mkdir /usr/share/scilab/modules/$SCI_MODULE/etc;
touch $_/$SCI_MODULE{.start,.quit}
SCI_MODULE="history_browser" ; mkdir
/usr/share/scilab/modules/$SCI_MODULE/etc; touch
$_/$SCI_MODULE{.start,.quit}
SCI_MODULE="slint" ; mkdir /usr/share/scilab/modules/$SCI_MODULE/etc;
touch $_/$SCI_MODULE{.start,.quit}
SCI_MODULE="coverage" ; mkdir /usr/share/scilab/modules/$SCI_MODULE/etc;
touch $_/$SCI_MODULE{.start,.quit}
touch /usr/share/scilab//modules/types/etc/types.quit
touch /usr/share/scilab//modules/preferences/etc/preferences.quit
```
And I'm not getting any error when starting scilab-cli nor any errors
when leaving the cli:
doc@debian64:~$ scilab-cli
Scilab 6.0.1 (Mar 31 2019, 13:13:06)
--> quit
doc@debian64:~$
So I think the line 62 in debian/rules [2] need to be reverted.
