Hello,
I do not know if this is the right mailing list to ask this, but I am horribly out of my depth, and would appreciate any help or re-direction that might be offered.
So far, Octave has been working normally for the last month or so, as I'm learning very basic commands. However, in trying to use the function fminunc(), I receive the following error:
dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: _dlartg_
Referenced from: /opt/local/lib/libqrupdate.1.dylib
Expected in: /opt/local/lib/libtatlas.dylib
dyld: Symbol not found: _dlartg_

panic: Trace/BPT trap: 5 -- stopping myself...
attempting to save variables to `octave-core'...
save to `octave-core' complete
Trace/BPT trap: 5

[Process completed]
A bit of unfortunate background: I am running OSX 10.8.3. I tried following the instructions for 'Manual Installation from Source', and was having difficulty getting Octave to build (probably should not have tried it, as I clearly didn't really know what I was doing). I think I tried to download and install Octave using Fink as well, but I do not remember, and somehow this did not work either. I finally succeeded in installing it using MacPorts, but I fear that my previous attempts may be part of what has caused some sort of library incompatibilities.
Can anybody help me resolve whatever is causing this error, and what presumably will cause innumerably many errors in the future?
Thanks so much! I really appreciate any help that you can offer!
Sincerely,
Matt
