Segmentation fault when trying to plot something
Description:
After the upgrade to 9.1.0-1 I am unable to plot anything, as the program instantly segfaults when calling plot
or fplot
. This happens both when running the GUI and when calling Octave from the command line, and had been replicated by at least one other user. Also, I should mention that:
- This happens with the qt graphic toolkit, which is the default. If needed I'll try to reproduce with other graphic backends
- This happens both on wayland (wlroots) and on X11
Additional info:
- package version(s): 9.1.0-1
- config and/or log files:
- Output of
bt full
, terminal session: terminal - Stack trace from @gromit shared on IRC: stacktrace
- Output of
- link to upstream bug report, if any: I didn't find anything in the upstream bug tracker, though admittedly I didn't spend that much time searching
Steps to reproduce:
- Open Octave (
octave --gui
or justoctave
) - Try to plot something from the command window, for instance by calling
fplot('sin')
- Observe the crash
