Follow-up Comment #1:

Confirmed on the development version of Octave as well. I only see this error
when the right-hand side is a scalar (matrix of size 1).

Also can confirm that this is not the same as bug #31278. That bug was a
regression of something that used to work in Octave 3.0.x. This one has never
worked AFAICT. The error message for this bug in Octave 3.0.5 was


> iarray(1) = [];
error: operator =: no conversion for assignment of `matrix' to indexed `int64
scalar'
error: assignment failed, or no method for `int64 scalar = matrix'
error: evaluating assignment expression near line 10, column 11
