[ANNOUNCEMENT] Re: Updated: octave-4.0.3-1

[Marco Atzeri]

I just found a serious bug on 4.0.3.

The forge package previously built with 4.0.1 don't
load with 4.0.3-1.

I am investigating, but likely I will retire the current
4.0.3-1 in short term.

Sorry for the inconvenience, never happened before.
One thing more to test the next time.

Regards
Marco

On my cywin setup setup-x86_64.exe (downloaded today), I can only select octave-4.0.1.
I changed the download site but no success.

Hi Tatsuro,
I retired it.

The bug is too serious to leave the 4.0.3-1 build with
all the forge packages built before with 4.0.0 and 4.0.1 unusable.

Have you checked if your windows build suffer the same problem ?

I received no feedback on the development list.

Regards
Marco

I understand the situation. Thanks!
For octave-4.0.3 on native windows, 
I have	built octave-forge packages for 64 windows binary using build_package.m script 
on octave 4.0.3 for windows. 
I do not know whether I can use packages that are built agaist the previous version.
