[Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#319618: octaviz: vtk_init undefined

[Philippe Strauss]

Package: octaviz
Version: 0.4.0-10
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


even after doing a symlink like this (reading another maybe related
bug retport):
/usr/lib/octave-2.1.71/liboctaviz.so -> ../octave-2.1.67/liboctaviz.so


working dir is now /usr/share/doc/octaviz/examples:

octave:2> source "vtk_sombsurf.m";
[nothing appear]
octave:3> source "vtk_demo.m";
[nothing appear]
octave:4> source "vtk_demo.m"
