[Jordi Gutiérrez Hermoso]

Can anyone confirm or deny this Savannah problem? I haven't ever seen it.

I really would like to file a bug report but http://savannah.gnu.org
gives me "Failed to connect to database: Lost connection to MySQL server
at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 113" whenever I
try to connect to the site (is this only a problem for me?).

The error can be reproduced by the command sequence

figure(1)
clf(gcf())
hold on
plot(1,1,'*k;Data;');
text(1,1,'  Data 1');
plot(2,2,'*k');
hold off

line 6 (2nd plot command) then leads to

error: __getlegenddata__: subscript indices must be either positive
integers or logicals
error: called from:
error:
/usr/local/share/octave/3.4.2/m/plot/private/__getlegenddata__.m at line
38, column 11
error:   /usr/local/share/octave/3.4.2/m/plot/private/__plt__.m at line
57, column 23
error:   /usr/local/share/octave/3.4.2/m/plot/plot.m at line 194, column 9
error:   /home/lilge/test.m at line 6, column 1

Best, Max
