Scilab 4 (Edgy)

[Bill Cosby]

Hello everyone,

I recently tried to install the Scilab 4 package, the problem is:
The scilab 4.0-2 package depends on a scilab-bin 3.0-12 package, which is weird to begin with, I then get the following error when I try to install it:

Depends: scilab-bin but it is not going to be installed.

is this sometihng I should post as a bug?

Thanks in advance,
Bill

Hi

I have no help for the strange error message you get. If you like to install DL the file from scilab.org instead and:
2. Launch the following commands :
[$SHELL] cd <scilab-path>
[$SHELL] tar xzf scilab-4.0.bin.linux-i686.tar.gz
[$SHELL] cd scilab-4.0
[$SHELL] make

3. To launch Scilab :
[$SHELL] cd <scilab-path>/scilab-4.0
[$SHELL] bin/scilab

I'm pleased to report this bug STILL EXISTS in the edgy repository.
