Details:
I received this bug report from an Arch Linux user and am forwarding it here.
I can reproduce it, and looking at the code it seems that units.m does not
expect the units command to output "Currency exchange rates ..." as the first
line, and would work correctly otherwise.
% pacman -Q units octave-miscellaneous
units 2.01-2
octave-miscellaneous 1.2.0-1
When attempting to use the units() function (which uses the GNU Units
program), I get the following. I'm guessing this is an issue with the version
of GNU Units that ArchLinux currently ships, but I have no other Linux distros
installed in order to validate this.
octave:1> pkg load miscellaneous
octave:2> units("cm", "in", 183.3)
error: parsing units output "Currency exchange rates from 2012-10-24
* 0.39370079
/ 2.54
"
error: called from:
error: /usr/share/octave/packages/miscellaneous-1.2.0/units.m at line 49,
column 18
