Hi,


and here one more successful compile with dependencies etc.
This time on a PC with ubuntu 9.04 which had never seen octave before.

Took only a few days to sort everything out and get make to complete without error :-/

octave executable seems to work.


# --- #
# ubuntu 9.04
# installed versions of gcc and gfortan : gcc version 4.3.3 (Ubuntu 4.3.3-5ubuntu4)
# (FYI: on ubuntu 9.10 the installed versions are: 4.4.1 (Ubuntu 4.4.1-4ubuntu9)

# this is run on ubuntu 9.04


# 1) The usual: D/L octave (tar.gz), unpack, cd octave-x.x.x


# 2) preliminaries
# the following dependencies were taken from the messages of './configure'

sudo apt-get -y install g++ flex bison gperf
sudo apt-get -y install gfortran
sudo apt-get -y install texinfo
sudo apt-get -y install libx11-dev  # octave will give warnings but no error and then will _not_ compile if missing libx11-dev
sudo apt-get -y install libreadline5 libreadline5-dev
sudo apt-get -y install libglpk-dev
sudo apt-get -y install gnuplot
sudo apt-get -y install libfltk1.1-dev
sudo apt-get -y install libgraphicsmagick1-dev
sudo apt-get -y install libfftw3-dev
sudo apt-get -y install libpcre3-dev
sudo apt-get -y install libarpack2-dev

# explicitely remove the following dependencies, may cause make-error :-(
# not clear exactly which ones are responsible
sudo apt-get -y remove --purge libarpack2-dev libfltk1.1-dev libpcre3-dev libgraphicsmagick1-dev



# --- and try to build ... --- #
./configure  # without this 'make distclean' doesnt work the first time
make distclean
./configure  # kind of redundant, but needs to be done :-(
make   # and be veeery patient :-)
make check
make install
octave # final test
