Thank you Sir,
It worked by deleting libqrupdate* from /usr/local/lib/
Thank you so much for your great help!

No, I am saying that you should probably be using those packages, but your system has a /usr/local/lib/libqrupdate.so also, that is not where Ubuntu installs libraries so it was presumably built by you or someone else administering your system. Try moving or deleting the files at /usr/local/lib/libqrupate* and see if the error is resolved.

Hi Sir,
Thank You for your quick reply. what you suggest ? should i uninstall and then install these packages.
searching through my package list i found these two packages :

libqrupdate-dev install
libqrupdate1 install

should i reinstall these packages?

Hi, thanks for your detailed bug report. The backtrace shows that the segfault is occuring in the qrupdate library installed in /usr/local/lib. By the path I can assume this is not the qrupdate from the Ubuntu repositories, did you build it yourself and for a specific reason? Does moving that library out of the way fix the segfault?

I have recently upgraded my Octave 3.8.1 to Octave 4.0.0. i have been facing the problem of this crash earlier in 3.8.1 also, some forum suggested to upgrade, so I did and still the same.

When i was using 3.8.1, even a small plot made the octave crash and exit with following error,

input: octave 1> plot(1:4,2:5);

result: panic : Segmentation Fault -- stopping myself --

Now in Octave 4.0.0

When i use the same plot function it prints

octave exited with signal 11

Please Help me! Thanks in advance.
