Re: communications-1.1.1.tar.gz installation error

[Shivaprasad R]

Hi Mike,

 

I was able to install the communications package after following the instructions, given in the link. In short, I downloaded the Octave3.6.4_gcc4.6.2_pkgs_20130402.7z file and unzipped it into the respective folders (installation directory). Used the commands below.

pkg rebuild -auto

pkg rebuild -noauto ad % may crash octave when loaded and 'clear all' is executed

pkg rebuild -noauto nan % shadows many statistics functions

pkg rebuild -noauto gsl % shadows some core functions

pkg rebuild -auto java

 

Thank you.

Shivaprasad.

It looks like the error you are seeing has been identified and the fix
will be in the next release of the package.

However, you didn't answer that you read and followed the instructions
at the link I provided:

Those instructions will help you install any of the listed precompiled
packages for the version of Octave you are working with. NB: there is
nothing in these instructions about running "pkg install <file>".

HTH,
