I installed the octave that was in the RHEL repo.
But this being a 64bit machine it seems to installed
both a 386 and x86_64 version.
Which I never understood.
Among other things.

Morning,
I know little about octave.
It seems that I know even less about system admin work.
Which I do.
I am attempting to install octave-forge-bundle-20080831
I run octave
cd to where my *.tar.gz are.
octave:4> pkg install ann-1.0.1.tar.gz
/usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/octave-3.0.1/liboctinterp.so
I suspect a mixture of 32 and 64 libraries here. Where did you get
Octave from?
