Re: Help installing testing tarball from 25 July 2007 on red hat ent. linux 5, amd64

I don't know what's causing your compilation problems, but I thought I'd 
point out that the Fedora project has started a project called Extra 
Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL), which provides packages from 
Fedora compiled for RHEL (and its derivatives like CentOS). In the last 
couple of days, a build of octave-2.9.13 has been released into the EPEL 
5 repository, complete with all of the sparse bells and whistles. You 
can find more information on EPEL and how to install packages from it at:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL

I hope this helps.
