Re: Installing odepkg in Octave_cli ver. 3.8.0

[Samuel Dupree]

Sebastian,

Thank you for responding so quickly. Yes I did install Octave from the .dmg file on octave-forge. If I have to install it from a package manager, the best option for me is install Octave using Fink. Any particular option/options I should select?

The problem seems not to be odepkg but the interplay between octave and the
compiler (gcc). Did you install Octave via the dmg from octave-forge? I am
afraid this build is outdated and I am surprised that it is working at all
on 10.10. 

Did you ever consider to use a package manager (homebrew, macports or fink)?
If yes, they are currently the best option to get a working octave
installation.
