[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #56477] [octave forge] (parallel) installation error 'command_editor', 'octave_env' has not been declared

[William Krivan]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #56477 (project octave):

Thanks. Installing the latest package release (3.1.3) from octave forge did
not work, and while I was able to compile Olaf's patch from 5/4/2019
(https://sourceforge.net/p/octave/parallel/ci/8a9ddd2b2da329b87a59c50ffd1d17096a860597/log/?path=
), I was still not able to get parcellfun to work. 

As I wrote in my comment #3 below, however, I did manage to get things to work
using the packages octave-forge-parallel (and  octave-forge-struct) for
OpenSUSE Leap 15.1. Things are working fine now. Thanks!
