Newbie Redux; OSX startup problems

[RICHARD WRIGHT]

I feel a funny asking this question, because I'm trying to run v 2.9.9. from
the binaries.

I got it installed and added the PATH and octave prompt comes up.
But along the way, I get:

error: couldn't link module
/usr/local/libexec/octave/2.9.9/site/oct/powerpc-apple-darwin8.9.0/octave-forge/__imagemagick__.oct
error: evaluating argument list element number 2
error: near line 1 of file
`/usr/local/share/octave/2.9.9/site/m/octave-forge/image/PKG_ADD'
error: source: error sourcing file
`/usr/local/share/octave/2.9.9/site/m/octave-forge/image/PKG_ADD'
error: near line 11 of file
`/usr/local/share/octave/2.9.9/m/startup/octaverc'

And then the prompt comes up and seems to work
I've checked and all the files seem to be there and on first blush seem ok.

If anybody has something to say, I'd appreciate it.

TIA.
