The bug report on StackOverflow is a little confusing to me. The crash
report posted there is for Octave.app 4.4.1, which is not what `brew
install octave` installs. `brew install octave` installs a vanilla
Octave, and is currently on 5.1.0. So it sounds like you have both
installed. (Octave.app is the "native Mac app" one that comes from
www.octave-app.org, like Sebastian mentioned.)

Come on over to https://github.com/octave-app/octave-app/issues and
report this as a bug there, and we'll try to fix it with you. This may
be packaging specific and will probably require a few rounds of
back-and-forth, so the mailing list probably isn't the best place to
discuss it.

Cheers,
Andrew
