Description Luis 2005-10-11 12:09:46 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050922 Fedora/1.0.7-1.1.fc3 Firefox/1.0.7

Description of problem:
The script /usr/share/TeXmacs/bin/tm_maxima used by TeXmacs to use itself as a graphical interface to maxima does not recognize the current maxima package.

Maxima presents itself as maxima-1.5.1.9rc4 (current version). But the above script only recognizes the following versions
5.6
5.9.0
5.9.1
5.9.1.1*
5.9.2
So it cannot identify maxima properly and Texmacs hangs

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.open TaXmacs
2.Insert --> Session --> Maxima (maxima installed)
3.1+2;
  

Actual Results:  texmacs hangs

Expected Results:  3 

Additional info:

The following patch on /usr/libexec/TeXmacs/bin/tm_maxima works fine on my system

< 5.9.1.1* | 5.9.2*) exec maxima -u $1 -l $2 -p "$TEXMACS_MAXIMA_PATH/texmacs-maxima-5.9.2.lisp";;
> 5.9.1.* | 5.9.2*) exec maxima -u $1 -l $2 -p "$TEXMACS_MAXIMA_PATH/texmacs-maxima-5.9.2.lisp";;
