control packages stops working

[Torsten]

Hi all,

the control packages stopped working on my system (tip 15806, fresh
installed control-2.4.1). Entering tf([1],[1 1]) I get:

error: tfpoly: argument must be a real vector
error: called from:
error:   /usr/local/share/octave/packages/control-2.4.1/@tfpol/tfpoly.m
at line 43, column 9
error:   /usr/local/share/octave/packages/control2.4.1/__vec2tfpoly__.m
at line 32, column 7
error:   /usr/local/share/octave/packages/control-2.4.1/@tf/tf.m
at line 213, column 5

Looks like the functions is_real_vector() and is_real_matrix() always
return 0.

Can anyone confirm this or is it just my setup (I played around with my
locale settings lately) ?

Best,
Torsten
