Sorry, this is the error i'm having with atoms:

        No ATOMS module is available. Please, check your Internet connection or make sure that your OS is compatible with ATOMS.

If i do atomsSystemUpdate() i get:

Scanning repository http://atoms.scilab.org/6.0 ... Done at line 265 of function atomsDESCRIPTIONget ( /usr/share/scilab/modules/atoms/macros/atoms_internals/atomsDESCRIPTIONget.sci line 284 ) at line 16 of function atomsSystemUpdate ( /usr/share/scilab/modules/atoms/macros/atomsSystemUpdate.sci line 33 ) atomsDESCRIPTIONget: save ('/home/pablo/.Scilab/scilab-6.0.0/.atoms/packages') has failed.

Thanks

Hi,
I'm still having trouble to use scilab 6.0.0 in Ubuntu 17.10. As i stated in previous mail, i managed ton install ubuntu 18.04 version, but it has the well known input function bug. I can live without input, despite i use scilab for teaching numerical methods and input is very useful. But then i realized atoms is also not working, at least in my pc. I get the error

So, i thought i could compile scilab myself, but when running configure file, i get this error:

configure: error: curl : library missing. (Cannot find symbol curl_easy_setopt). Check if curl is installed and if the version is correct

Curl is installed:

curl -V
curl 7.55.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.55.1 OpenSSL/1.0.2g zlib/1.2.11 libidn2/2.0.2 libpsl/0.18.0 (+libidn2/2.0.2) librtmp/2.3

So i wen to config.log and found this:

configure:31521: $CURL_CONFIG --checkfor $CURL_REQUIRED_VERSION
configure:31524: $? = 0
configure:31626: checking for curl_easy_setopt in -lcurl

/home/pablo/scilab/scilab/usr/lib/libcurl.so: undefined reference to `SSLv2_client_method'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

I have libssl and libcrypto, but i think i have newer versions. I could not manage to install those versions.

Is this the problem? how can i solve this?
Thanks

Thanks,
I solved it updating too. Anyway, that version is the one with input command bugged. I wish i could use a nigthly build where that bug is fixed. Also, trying to download a nigthly build lead me to 404 http error.

Hi, I also followed the steps in my Ubuntu 17.10 but it just keeps installing scilab 5.5.2. Am i doing something wrong?
I seem to remember doing a "sudo apt update" after step 2, before step 3. I also made sure I had removed the 5.5.2 release before trying this, just to make sure things didn't get confused. Though as shown in my last message I still managed to confuse myself a little bit by not removing the tarfile 6.0.0 release I had lying around :-) Hope this helps, Paul _______________________________________________ users mailing list users at lists.scilab.org<mailto:users at lists.scilab.org> http://lists.scilab.org/mailman/listinfo/users
