[Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#530858: octave3.0: Unable to write files bigger than 2Go

Package: octave3.0
Version: 1:3.0.1-6lenny3
Severity: normal


My system is unable to write file bigger than 2Go with octave on
i386 platform.

A script to reproduce it :

%% octave  script %%
fd = fopen( "test.bin" , "wb" ) ;
for k = [ 1:300 ]
    fwrite( fd , randn(1024,1024) , "double");
end ;
fclose( fd ) ;
    
ls -lh
%% end of script %%

The file should be bigger than 2Go, but his size remains 2Go.
