I tried to reproduce that error on 4 machines. It appeared on 2 machines and was fixable by simply reinstalling octave. So maybe it's not a bug.

I'm sorry.

It might help if you could look into why
epstool and fig2dev are missing from your configuration.
Plotting requires these.

Also, it would make it easier to diagnose your problem
if you indicated what version of Octave you are using and
what platform you use.

Yes they are. When you see this error, though, do you still have an Octave prompt and the interpreter still functions? If so, then this looks like an error in the ghostscript program. I've run into several of these myself. Let us know if that's the case and we can help you get the intermediate postscript output that is fed to ghostscript and making it error.

I try to plot some stuff. While debugging some misbehaviour with gnuplot I stumbled across a fltk bug. Segfaults are always bugs, aren't they?
