[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #46234] setting MarkerFaceColor causes octave to crash

[Rik]

Follow-up Comment #6, bug #46234 (project octave):

Thanks for the testing.  So it is not the ppa build.  Since you were able to
compile pretty easily I think the next step is to build a version of Octave
with debugging symbols and then run it under gdb to get a backtrace.

Quick instructions:


cd octave_build_directory
make clean
setenv CFLAGS "-g -O0 -pipe"
setenv CXXFLAGS "${CFLAGS}"
./configure --Whatever_options_you_want
make
./run-octave -g -f --no-gui


The above assumes you are using csh or tcsh--modify the setenv calls if you
are using bash.  The final run-octave will invoke gdb automatically.  From
within gdb do


run


which will eventually get you to an Octave prompt.  From there, execute the
problem code that causes a segfault.  When the program segfaults it will drop
you back to a gdb prompt.  Type


bt


to get a backtrace and then copy and paste that into the bug report.
