Package: scilab-6.1.1+dfsg2-5
Version: scilab
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
Installed Scilab and Octave on brand new system with XFFCE4 and NVIDIA
driver. Not able to launch Scilab or Xcos from either the GUI or prompt. Used
Synaptic for install so all depends were installed.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
The error message reads "The configuration file has been corrupted.
Scilab needs to restart". I removed ~/.Scilab and tried restarting. Same error.
Installed version 6.1.0 from Bullseye but it does not launch because the JAVA
depends do not match. I did ldd scilab.bin and noticed that I am missing some
files. This should have been part of the depends install.
* What was the outcome of this action?
I will investigate how to install the missing components:
libjava.so => not found
libverify.so => not found
libjvm.so => not found
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I would expect the pacakge and depends to get installed just like they
do when I tested on "Bullseye" and everything worked.
