[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #59546] Missing latex interpreter

[Markus Mützel]

Follow-up Comment #14, bug #59546 (project octave):

I compiled for Windows with the last patch from comment #8 using MXE Octave.

Cross-building with that change worked without issues.

On Windows, I installed MikTeX and added the following line to Octave's
startup script to add the path to "latex.exe", "dvipng.exe", and "dvisvgm.exe"
to the PATH variable:

wshSystemEnv("PATH") = "C:\Program Files\MiKTeX 2.9\miktex\bin\x64;" &
wshSystemEnv("PATH")


With that change, I see the following when trying to plot something:

>> sombrero ();

warning: latex_renderer: unable to compile "?"
warning: called from
    figure at line 96 column 7
    newplot at line 120 column 10
    surf at line 76 column 9
    sombrero at line 68 column 5

warning: latex_renderer: unusable latex tool-chain
warning: called from
    axes at line 107 column 8
    newplot at line 161 column 10
    surf at line 76 column 9
    sombrero at line 68 column 5


Is there something I can do to track down why it is failing?
