Recently the preference file has started to be changed by something other than
me. Specifically the "Always show debug breakpoints and pointers (opens
related file if close)" setting. It keeps being set to false/unticked with the
result that if my code has a 'keyboard' statement then the relevant file is
not automatically opened. I have not been able to narrow down why this is
happening.

I'm using octave from the Ununtu repository and I don't recall it being update
recently so I suspect it must be due to something in the OS (Kubuntu). However
I thought I'd mention the issue here in case someone knows how to fix it. 

(I've also started having an issue whereby the keyboard short cuts are wrong
when I return to the GUI after interacting with non-octave windows. Again this
sounds like an OS issue.)
