Hi. I can't offer any help because I'm quite new to Octave and Fink,
but I can say that I have Octave installed via Fink on my TiBook with
Mac OS X 10.2.6 and it seems to work OK. In fact, I just updated
Octave to version 2.1.46 (with Fink: "fink update-all") over the
weekend. I did not get individual libraries the first time I installed
Octave; all I did was "fink install octave" and let Fink fill in all
the dependencies. Maybe I was just lucky. Perhaps a more experienced
Octave/Mac OS X user can step in here.

I think I have mentioned on this list before that I haven't been able
to build octave on mac os x. I used fink to get the necessary
libraries (readline, etc) but the build fails. The fink version of
Octave has too many numerical problems to be usable.
Up to now I've been able to manage by running my jobs on a linux
machine but that situation will soon change. I need to be able to run
octave under os x. Can anyone either
(a) tell me how to fix the problems with the fink version
(b) post a fixed fink package
(c) tell me how to get this to build
Any of these would work.
I'm getting a little desperate here.
