[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #59038] test failure (regression) with legend.m on Windows 10

[Hartmut]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #59038 (project octave):

I have now observed the same test failure on a second Win10 machine, with
totally different hardware and also a different Version of Win10. The precise
numbers a slightly different, so I present them here again:


>>>>> processing
C:\Octave\Octave-6.0.90\mingw64\share\octave\6.0.90\m\plot\appearance\legend.m

 hf = figure ("visible", "off");
 unwind_protect
   axes ("units", "normalized");
   plot (1:10);
   hl = legend ("Legend Text", "units", "normalized");
   pos = get (gca, 'position');
   set (hf, 'position', [0, 0, 200, 200]);
   set (hl, 'fontsize', 20);
   assert (get (gca, 'position'), pos, 2*eps);
 unwind_protect_cleanup
   close (hf);

The only common thing I can imagine is, that both times I have installed
Octave into a non-standard program path. Now it was "C:\Octave", and before it
was "D:\myname\Octave-installation".

Can other people reproduce this test failure?
