Package: octave2.1-emacsen
Version: 2.1.57-1
Severity: important

Hello,

while trying to debug a perl script that I use as interfaces to a
MySQL DB, I found that octave, when run from inside Emacs (M-X
run-octave), has a tendency to exit if trying to use popen. In
particular, the example from the help causes this behaviour:

octave> fid = popen ("ls -ltr / | tail -3", "r");
octave> 

Process Inferior Octave finished

If running octave outside Emacs, this does not happen. This behaviour
is probably linked to signal handling and/or process management.

Best regards

Pascal Dupuis
