configure trouble under linux on Mac

[Mark A. Rubin]

 Hi all,

 

1. We downloaded the current revision of Octave from the website.
2. We de-compressed the archives onto a ZIP.
3. We transferred the directories from the ZIP to a Power Mac G4 running Black Lab Linux.
4. We tried to run configure on the Mac:
1. Under “sh”, “bash”, “zsh”, “ash” and “tcsh
2. All versions failed at the first for loop, w/ a syntax error report.
5. We tried to “patch” Octave-2.2.15 with the Octave-2.2.16 patch w/ the same results

???

 

Thanks,

 

Mark
