Details:

(OF geometry 2.1.1)


>> pt1 = [1  1]
pt1 =
   1   1
>> pts = [0 0; 1 0; 1 1; 0 1; 1 2]
pts =
   0   0
   1   0
   1   1
   0   1
   1   2
>> [a, b, c] = minDistancePoints (pt1, pts)
error: 'ind1' undefined near line 211 column 21
error: called from
    minDistancePoints at line 211 column 19


while

>> [a, b] = minDistancePoints (pt1, pts)
a = 0
b =  3


looks to be OK.

The bug lies in the if block at L. 186 that is skipped while in the elseif
clause in L.208+ values from uninitialized variables in that skipped if block
are assigned to varargout.

(package maintainer cc'd - hopefully I got his email right))
