[Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#304162: vtk_init does not work because liboctaviz is in a wrong place

[Thomas Weber]

Package: octaviz
Version: 0.4.0-10
Severity: normal

octave:1> pwd
/usr/share/doc/octaviz/examples
octave:2> vtk_demo
error: liboctaviz.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
error: called from `vtk_demo' in file
`/usr/share/doc/octaviz/examples/vtk_demo.m'

This is due to the fact that liboctaviz.so is at
/usr/lib/octave-2.1.67/liboctaviz.so, 
so vtk_init cannot find it.

temporary workaround:
symlink it from /usr/lib/octave-2.1.69/

Regards
Thomas
