I've tried Maxima on a machine with Ubuntu 8.10. Everything was
installed from the standard repository; it's 5.13.0 and GCL 2.6.8.
While doing different things (loading a /share/contrib package or
calculating something), Maxima may say
Maxima encountered a Lisp error:
Error in CONDITIONS::CLCS-UNIVERSAL-ERROR-HANDLER [or a callee]:
Couldn't protect
Automatically continuing.
To reenable the Lisp debugger set *debugger-hook* to nil.
After that it may exit with segfault.
Does anybody know why it happens? Is it because of broken package(s)?
A simple test case for Ubuntu users: run maxima and say
load ("simplify_sum");
(Generally, I'm using the cvs version with sbcl and everything is OK.)
