[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #43040] linewidth is not working

[anonymous]

Follow-up Comment #9, bug #43040 (project octave):

Hi,

#1 Your question
*****************

> Does plotting with the qt toolkit from within the GUI (start octave with
--force-gui) show the expected linewidth?

No, that makes no different. 


#2 My System (testing/unstable)
********************************

Here is my apt-source

+++++++++++++++++++++++++

deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free
deb http://debian.uni-duisburg-essen.de/debian/ testing-proposed-updates
contrib non-free main

so i you are not "non-free" this seems strange to me. Nevertheless I might ask
one of the admin guys to have a look. 


#3 Bug reports and "own initiative finding"
********************************************

First of all I honor your work for the software expecting that you are not
paid to do this.  

Nethertheless is seems that we have divergenze understanding of bug reports. I
understand a bug report as contribution from my side to you.

I write a script for students and add notes to the script what kind of Matlab
scripts work in octave as well or I write down easy shortcuts to get the same
result in octave as in Matlab. If it is not working on my Linux system I am
fine with this situation. I just do not add the "works in octave" icon to one
or two Matlab-Listings and my "problem" is solved. 

I spend time - and time is what I most need - to send you information as long
as you ask me and I feel like helping improving the quality of your software -
that we the new GUI might be a good alternative for students or people with no
Matlab Licence or the urge to use Open Source for engineering or science.

So if you want, feel free to ask me about the version of a library etc. to
solve your problem and I will answer as fast as my priority list will allowed
this. If this "bug" is no problem to you and your are sure it will not arrive
in a context that you find serious =>I am fine and done.

Just tell me if you want my help or if this is just a waste of time from your
side. In this case we both should stop that here and invest our rare time
somewhere else.
