[Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#535281: octave-io: dlmread is either not working or not implemented in the package as it was in the previous versions

[Antonio Vigueras Rodriguez]

Package: octave-io
Version: 1.0.8-1
Severity: important

Package does not seem to implement the previous dlmread.m function. 
Calls to use that function dlmread results in the following error: 
"error: `dlmread' undefined near line 1 column 1"

In fact, the package contents other functions, for instance /usr/share/octave/packages/3.0/io-1.0.8/csvread.m, which try to make use of the missing one.

Best regards,
Antonio
