Package: libplot-perl
Version: 2.2.0-7
Severity: important
It fails to create plots when the selected device is ps, png or gif.
It is still able to create plots in an X window.
The following program reproduces the bug:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use Graphics::Libplot ':ALL';
$handle=pl_newpl($ARGV[0],\*STDIN,\*STDOUT,\*STDERR);
pl_selectpl($handle);
pl_openpl();
pl_closepl();
pl_selectpl(0);
pl_deletepl($handle);
___END___
Results: X - an empty window is created
png,gif - segfault at pl_closepl
ps - segfault at pl_deletepl
The bug was introduced when I upgraded from Woody to Sarge.
I suppose this means that the bug appeared in the change from
libplot (2.4.1-7) to libplot2 (2.4.1-11).
