The bug is actually in the dbfwrite and dbfread functions in the
octave-io package, which are used in the unit test of function shapewrite
of the octave-mapping package, whose failure is shown above.

I filed a bug report in the upstream bug tracker, regarding this issue:
https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?58457

I will patch the octave-io package, in order to fix the problem.

Best,

Rafael

I uploaded version 1.4.0-2 of the octave-mapping package, which
build-depends on octave-io >= 2.6.1-2.

Thanks,
