Hello,

(DISCLAIMER : I am neither a Mac user nor a libsvm user.)

First, you talk about "compiling mex files to oct. files".  Note that 
mex-files and oct-files are two different things (but both of them need 
to be compiled).

Second, octave complains that it cannot find libsvmread.  If, as I 
lelieve, libsvmread is a mex- or oct-file, this is not surprising since 
you failed to compile them.

So, your first task is to compile the mex- or oct-files.  If you want 
help about that you will have to provide more information : how did you 
install libsvm, which steps do you follow when trying to compile the 
mex-files, and which error message(s) do you get?
