After downloading sundials I ran the following installation command in Octave
> pkg install sundials-2.4.0.tar.gz
package is missing file: COPYING
so I took a file named COPYING from another package and jammed it into sundials-2.4.tar.gz then got
> pkg install sundials-2.4.0.tar.gz
package is missing file: DESCRIPTION
Does anyone have a fix for this as it's also going to need an index, makefile etc.?
