When I've had make check fail on me, it's usually because my
LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not set right or something along those lines. I see
you're passing a -rpath option to the linker to set the path that way.
Can you try setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to see if that makes a difference?

If you run "ldd libcruft/.libs/libcruft.so.1" in the octave tree, do
you see liblapack.so.3 in the list? Does it show the path to the
liblapack.so.3 in your /software directory or does it say "not found"?

And if you run "readelf -d libcruft/.libs/libcruft.so.1" do you see
the "Library rpath" directories that you configured for the build?

Mike,

thanks for your help, i was able to get the make check to work with 11 failures only :-)

most of the failures are due to Fortran subroutine dresvd_ and sgesvd_

So, I am not too considered (or should I be).
