[Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#710272: octave: Printing gives a Ghostscript error

Package: octave
Version: 3.6.4-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

when printing a figure with octave, I get the following error message:

  GPL Ghostscript 9.05: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1

The following code should reproduce the error:

octave:1> x = linspace(0, 10);
octave:2> plot(x, sin(x));
octave:3> print -dps2 plot.ps
GPL Ghostscript 9.05: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1

Hence printing is currently not possible in octave.
