#45210: Octave: unexpected termination after hitting ctrl-c (Octave v3.8.2, OSX10.9.5) ---------------------+------------------------- Reporter: mike@… | Owner: michaelld@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.1 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: Port: octave | ---------------------+------------------------- Comment (by roberthuston@…): I still encountered the crash problem after updating. I meant to reply to this thread but got sidetracked. I also encountered the "fltk" issue too. Doing {{{ sudo port self update sudo port upgrade outdated }}} still produced a buggy octave build for me. I had to use {{{ sudo port -f install octave +gui configure.compiler=clang }}} to make it behave. Also, the /opt/local/share/octave/site/m/startup/octaverc file has {{{ graphics_toolkit("fltk"); }}} as the last line. It should be {{{ graphics_toolkit("gnuplot"); }}} (At least it was in all previous installations.) Just edit octaverc to fix this. If you want fltk, then install fltk-devel prior to reinstalling octave and then add "+fltk" as a variant {{{ sudo port install fltk-devel sudo port -f install octave +fltk +gui configure.compiler=clang }}} Use fltk-devel since octave doesn't work correctly with the regular fltk. (Note: The "+fltk" variant isn't listed in octave's "port info" output, but it still seems to work.) Replying to [comment:60 lists@…]:

Thanks for the feedback; seems like we need a better system for determining which compiler to use. But, that's a separate issue from this ticket's; so, I went ahead and checked in these changes -- including a rev-bump to get changes in place for everyone. Added in r132228, r132229, and r132230.

Am I assuming right that now:

{{{ sudo port selfupdate sudo port upgrade outdated }}}

should then fix the issue ?

I have done so and upgraded to octave-3.8.2_4 but I still have the issue. And it also complains about fltk, which it didn't do before:

{{{ % port installed octave octave @3.8.2_4+atlas+gcc49+gui (active) % port version Version: 2.3.3 % octave -q error: graphics_toolkit: fltk toolkit is not available error: called from: error: /opt/local/share/octave/3.8.2/m/plot/util/graphics_toolkit.m at line 70, column 5 error: /opt/local/share/octave/site/m/startup/octaverc at line 5, column 1 octave:1> exit libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type octave_interrupt_exception panic: Abort trap: 6 -- stopping myself... attempting to save variables to 'octave-workspace'... save to 'octave-workspace' complete Abort trap: 6 }}}

I am running Yosemite. Is there something more I have to do ?
