Homebrew Octave 4.0.2

[Vic Norton]

Hi Sebastian,

I have some serious problems with HomeBrew’s Octave 4.0.2, primarily with any 
kind of plotting. I’ve gone back to Octave 4.0.0_5, which works fine for me.

I don’t know what to report about 4.0.2 or where. Here is a typical problem:

~$ octave --no-gui
GNU Octave, version 4.0.2
…
octave> x = 0 : 0.1 : 4;
octave> setenv GNUTERM qt;
octave> plot(x, sin(x));
octave> 2016-05-15 17:03:39.865 octave-gui[11088:451929] modalSession has been 
exited prematurely - check for a reentrant call to endModalSession:
warning: print.m: fig2dev binary is not available.

Sometimes the plot shows up. Sometimes not.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Regards,

Vic
