This is my first post to this list. If this is the wrong place to post questions, feel free to correct me.
I am trying to build Octave 3.4.3 on Ubuntu 10.04. I am using lapack-3.4.0, suitesparse-3.6.1. This is on an Intel Xeon W3680. I attempted to follow the instructions on wiki but have not had any luck getting it working. I rebuilt lapack, standard blas, suitesparse using the 64-bit settings. I copied the libs (renamed the suitesparse ones to match octave defaults) and ran the configuration using the 64-bit setting and pointing to my lapack, blas and suitesparse. This appears to be fine. No errors about the blas not being 64-bit. I build Octave it that seems fine but
when I run make check it fails with the following:
src/DLD-FUNCTIONS/chol.cc .......panic: Segmentation fault -- stopping myself ...
If I run:
./run-octave -g
run
octave:2> cd tests
octave:2> fntests
I see:
src/DLD-FUNCTIONS/chol.cc .......
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x00007ffff5b9339a in ztrsv_ () from /usr/src/octave-3.4.3/libcruft/.libs/libcruft.so.0
Any help anyone can provide to get Octave working would be great. I have next to no programming skills, so if there is something you need me to try, please provide as many details as
possible.
Thanks
