Hi, I this still an issue with the current stable 2.1.72? If not I'd like to close this bug. Thanks, Markus

This should be fixed in octave-2.7.73-r1. The test failed since it did some (root) path related things that won't work inside the sandbox during an emerge. Please re-open if you continue to have this problem with the above version. Thanks for reporting! Best, Markus
