Octave out of date?

[Marius Schamschula]

Hi all,

I just realized, that I could apply the patch, available from savannah, to fix the octave GUI freeze on quit issue to octave TIP:

https://github.com/Schamschula/macports/blob/f5e1a4358c6ec77a20e285867f73f6bacfb59fe2/math/octave-devel/Portfile <https://github.com/Schamschula/macports/blob/f5e1a4358c6ec77a20e285867f73f6bacfb59fe2/math/octave-devel/Portfile>

and

https://github.com/Schamschula/macports/blob/f5e1a4358c6ec77a20e285867f73f6bacfb59fe2/math/octave-devel/files/octave-qt_wait_on_worker_thread-2017sep25.patch <https://github.com/Schamschula/macports/blob/f5e1a4358c6ec77a20e285867f73f6bacfb59fe2/math/octave-devel/files/octave-qt_wait_on_worker_thread-2017sep25.patch>

And, yes, it works!
