[Scilab-users] Scilab-6.0.0 stopped working

[Nikolay Strelkov]

Dear Paul!

Seems to be incompatibility between upstream (Scilab.org) and GNU/Linux
distributions.

You can install scilab 6.0.0-1 packages from 18.04 LTS to your 17.10
as described
on AskUbuntu <https://askubuntu.com/a/1003065/66509>.
