Package: xaos
Version: 3.5+ds1-1
Severity: minor
Tags: upstream

in the "escape time fractals" tutorial, at one point, it says "z=z^c+c"
instead of "z=z^2+c".

the affected line is codenamed "escape9" in the catalogs, and the bug
went unnoticed at least through the german (deutsch.cat), italian
(italiano.cat), portuguese (portuguese.cat) and romanian (romanian.cat)
translations, but not through the others.

the complete escape9 line says:

For example in the Mandelbrot set, the iterative function is z=z^c+c

where it should say:

For example in the Mandelbrot set, the iterative function is z=z^2+c
