Re: error with publish

[Francis Poulin]

Hello Ben,

I spoke too soon. One example publishes correctly, and looks great by the way, 
but another fails with another program.  The error I get is

error: 'exec_print' undefined near line 216 column 33
error: called from:
error:   /sw/share/octave/3.6.4/packages/miscellaneous-1.2.0/publish.m at line 
216, column 31
error:   /sw/share/octave/3.6.4/packages/miscellaneous-1.2.0/publish.m at line 
138, column 5

I removed my fink install and reinstalled it and it gives the same error.

When I look at publish.m I se that line 277 uses exec_print. I believe the 
comments finish near lines 114.  

Would this be a fink issue?

Initially I tried using pkg -forge but that failed.  Fink installed it and it 
sometimes works, which is a bit better but maybe there's an outstanding issue?  
Or I'm doing something silly.

Francis
