I just upgraded to scilab 3.0 and now I can't write expressions like 4^2 I have to write 4*4 instead. When I try to write 4^2 I just get "4 2" and a parse error when I try to evaluate it. What is wrong? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
I'm using Xorg, and scilab seems to be using the font /usr/share/fonts/ttf-bitstream-vera/Vera.ttf and this is a problem in the game freelords also (bug #71944). I don't know if this is of any help.
Problem solved, see bug #71944 http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=71944
