Re: error building from source

Anyway, the error has been fixed by adding to "--disable-docs" to the configure script. http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/octave-bug-tracker/2011-12/msg00031.html

Although the bug had been reported in 2011 but it seems that it has not been fixed in the latest package.

Subject: error building from source

Dear all,

I was trying to install the latest version from source to do a PCA analysis. However I hit an error while making the source.

make[3]: Entering directory `/root/octave-3.6.4/doc/interpreter'
TEXINPUTS="./..:$TEXINPUTS" \
        MAKEINFO='/bin/sh /root/octave-3.6.4/build-aux/missing --run makeinfo   -I .' \
        ../../missing texi2dvi octave.texi
/bin/sh: ../../missing: No such file or directory
make[3]: *** [octave.dvi] Error 127
make[3]: Leaving directory `/root/octave-3.6.4/doc/interpreter'
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/octave-3.6.4/doc'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/octave-3.6.4'
make: *** [all] Error 2

What does that mean?

 

Regards,
Mahmood
