Bug Description
I installed octave with apt-get, the version is 3.8.1
When I try to load an image in octave, I get the error:
error: imread: invalid image file: /usr/lib/
error: called from:
error: /usr/share/
error: /usr/share/
error: /usr/share/
What may give a hint, is that when I perform:
strings /usr/lib/
it shows that there is a symboil named _ZN6Magick5Colo
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and trying to help make Ubuntu better. However, it seems that you are running Octave against libraries not provided by the official Ubuntu repositories. Specifically, it looks like you are running a version of the GraphicsMagick library that was built with a quantum depth of 16 rather than the default of 8. Can you confirm that this is the case? Did you compile GraphicsMagick yourself or install from a PPA or other repository?
