Hello,

After very long  time octave-4.02 arrived and every single plot command crashed octave-4.02.  That program is total unusable.

I have send  meantime 20 emails to apple.
I have gnuplot and aquaterm 10 times removed and again installed.

What can I do for a working octave 4.02?

Regards,


Hans-Juergen Greif

I’m not sure why you’re emailing Fink, since I haven’t had the time or motivation to update Octave beyond 3.8.2.  

Maybe try the Octave mailing lists?

Hi Hans,

Please tell us where you got your copy of Octave from (a link would be best). Perhaps from the link below?

https://sourceforge.net/projects/octave/files/Octave%20MacOSX%20Binary/2016-06-06-binary-octave-4.0.2/

Please type “graphics_toolkit” at Octave’s prompt to verify you are using gnuplot.

What version of Mac OS X are you running?

What is your processor?

The answers to those last two question can be found under “About this Mac”.

The plot Bug is on all mac os 10.11.5 versions for example mac book pro, mac pro.

I have also installed FLTK and 

graphics_toolkit ("FLTK")

does not work also.

I’m able to run Octave 4.0.2 on Mac OS 10.11.5. Both the gnuplot and qt toolkits work for me.

Did you build Octave yourself?

Ben

Hello, 

 No, I have used a dmg file.

Regards, 

Where did you get the dmg file?

Ben

Hello, 

from wiki.octave.org

Hans

We've been debugging the dmg. It is possible the problem you've encountered has been fixed.

Please download again. The download should come from sourceforge.

Be sure to try the qt graphics toolkit.

Ben

I just noticed the help-list, Sebastian, and Alex were dropped. Please be sure to reply-all
