[Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#523042: octave3.0: loading a datafile skips every second line
Package: octave3.0
Version: 1:3.0.4~rc7-1
Severity: grave
Justification: causes non-serious data loss
Using the load function to read in a data file, it now skips every
second line.
You can see the bug with this simple test:
$ cat > test.dat
0 100
1 200
2 300
3 400
4 500
5 600
$ octave -q
octave:1> a = load("test.dat")
a =
0 100
2 300
4 500
It was working fine two weeks ago, perhaps it is some bug in the new
release candidate?
