I can try. But I have some testing and some sid packages. A while ago I 
was using sid only, but there was a time that sid was very unstable. So 
I switched to testing and stayed there. Which packages could cause the 
error? I would look up their versions then.

Well, I use octave2.9 as some of the 3.0 packages (e.g. forge) are 
(were) broken or not available.

Yes, I tried it with a fresh download.

I tried it. No difference.
