I have installed sci-mathematics/scilab-4.1 with sci-libs/blas-atlas-3.7.24 and sci-libs/lapack-atlas-3.7.24-r1. It installed, and seems to run okay, however when I try to run the "Introduction to SCILAB" Demo, after a few steps, scilab dies without leaving any error messages. When run under gdb with scilab -debug, I got an error message. Here is the gdb / scilab output: (gdb) run Starting program: /usr/lib64/scilab-4.1/bin/scilex (no debugging symbols found) ...

Thanks for testing! It looks like this is a problem with gfortran, x86_64 and scilab. I'll have another look at scilab's fortran code but if there's no easy fix we will probably have to file a bug upstream. Thanks, Markus

Since I still can't reproduce this here, would one of you be able to check if this is still an issue with gcc-4.1.2? Thanks, Markus
I'm compiling gcc.Should I try emerge scilab with or without the patch provided here?
Hi Andrea, I think at this point I would mainly like to know if it works as is, i.e. without the patch. If it still breaks I have to think about what to do since the patch probably only fixes one of several issues. Thanks for your help, Makrus
I did # emerge -u gcc && emerge scilab Nothing changes, I've got the same error. Did I have to recompile anything else?
Hal9000 ~ # emerge -pv scilab These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild R ] sci-mathematics/scilab-4.1 USE="gtk java -Xaw3d -debug -ocaml -tk" 0 kB I'm posting my USE for scilab. Also I noticed that the error reported in first post happens only in scilab window. If I do the same sequence in a console running "scilab -nw" it gives me the right answer. Thanks for your help
Hi Andrea, Thanks much for testing! I had a look at your emerge --info and noticed that you don't set any FFLAGS. In this case scilab will be compiled without any since portage does NOT automatically set FFLAGS=CFLAGS. I am not sure if this has anything to do with your reported problem but we should rule it out. That said, could you explicitly set FFLAGS and try re-emerging the package. To to this, either set 1) FFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" in your /etc/make.conf and then re-emerge scilab or just 2) FFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686 ....." /usr/bin/emerge scilab Thanks, Markus
Hal9000 ~ # grep FLAGS /etc/make.conf | grep -v "#" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686 -mmmx -msse -msse2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" FFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--sort-common -Wl,--as-needed" and I also compiled it without --as-needed LDFLAG. But the error is still there... :(
Hi Andrea, Thanks much for testing this as well. We should probably check upstream's bugzilla for any bugs along what you are seeing and if there are none file a bug with them. I hope I can have a closer look at this soon. Thanks, Makrus
I've tried different USE [ebuild R ] sci-mathematics/scilab-4.1 USE="java tk -Xaw3d -debug -gtk -ocaml" I've added tk and removed gtk. Now it works, (both errors are gone) but, obviously, it looks very very ugly. I've done this because I saw a warning when i started gtk compiled one saying that Scilab Consortium doesn't support gtk versions.... If there could be a fix for gtk+ code...
(In reply to comment #15) > I've done this because I saw a warning when i started gtk compiled one saying > that Scilab Consortium doesn't support gtk versions.... > > If there could be a fix for gtk+ code... > Ahh, interesting. Unfortunately, it escapes me at the moment how the gtk interface could cause this. Well, at least it works now! I'll have to look at the code over the weekend to see if there is something that comes to mind. @Jozsef: Does switching to the tk interface solve your problem as well? Thanks, Markus
Folks, Are there still the same issues with then newest scilab-4.1.1? Thanks, Markus
The "Event Palette" Issue is still there with gtk interface. Didn't test other one. If you got clues that help you solve'em you're welcome, otherwise I think we have better wait for scilab-5 (coming out in october) which should be Java Based
Workaround is to compile with USE="tk gtk". Scilab will appear with gtk look and feel but bug does not show up, at least on my box. Examples: # # Here is the bug. # USE="-tk gtk debug" emerge scilab $ scilab -debug (gdb) r [...] -->log(10) ans = At line 17 of file formatnumber.f Internal Error: printf is broken Program exited with code 03. (gdb) l 1 /mnt/stockage/sys/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/work/build-amd64-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/nptl/crti.S: No such file or directory. in /mnt/stockage/sys/tmp/portage/sys-libs/glibc-2.5-r2/work/build-amd64-x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-nptl/nptl/crti.S (gdb) q # Here is the apparent workaround. USE="tk gtk debug" emerge scilab $ scilab -debug --> log(10) ans = 2.3025851 If you can confirm this workaround, could you tune the ebuild to force USE="tk" for the amd64 arch?
Hi Jérôme, Thanks a lot for the pointer! Unfortunately, I can not reproduce this error on my x86 dev boxes. It seems quite strange that USE="tk gtk" versus USE="-tk gtk" could lead to this problem. Anyway, if your suggestion helps Jozsef as well then I will probably remove the tk useflag altogether and force the presence of tk/tcl. That said, Jozsef could you please test if USE="tk gtk" works for you as well. Thanks, Markus
Compiled with both tk and gtk. Now events palette displays correctly. Thanks
Hi Andrea, Thanks for testing and great to hear that it works now! I guess I will change the ebuild to force tk even if compiled against gtk since this seems to be the culprit. Best, Markus
I have updated the scilab-4.1.1 ebuild correspondingly hopefully taking care of all the problems reported in this bug. Please re-open should there still be issues on amd64. Thanks for all the help and testing. cheers, Markus
