Package: octave-parallel
Version: 3.1.0-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

Any attempt to use parcellfun leads to errors such as these:

warning: parcellfun: unhandled error in subprocess 1
warning: called from
    parcellfun at line 291 column 9
    [...] traceback on my own code elided
error: '__exit__' undefined near line 311 column 7

Searching the Interweb leads me to a discussion on the GNU bug site
which seems to indicate that the problem is known in the Octave
community and that the problem has been introduced by the Debian
packaging:

https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?39481

Thank you.
