John, I am now able to do a bit more diagnosis on the problem of recent Octave's seg faulting when using openGL. It turns out that the real problem was due to "leftover" libraries from earlier installs. This became pretty clear when I noticed that I got different results building the current system on different machines. But, when I tried make uninstall on the machine that was failing, it did not fix the problem. So, I found that after make uninstall the following libraries were still present (and leftover from an install on 4 October). address@hidden lib]# ls -l octave-3.3.50+/So, I did rm -rf /usr/local/lib/octave-3.3.50+ and then make install. This fixed the problem. It appears that there was something unintended in the naming of libraries on about 4 October. You may reasonably consider this to be too esoteric to worry about, but a somewhat more forceful version of uninstall might make sense. Michael |
