I am wanting to install Octave but after installing Fink I can't seem to find octave in either FinkCommander or by using "Fink list" or "dselect" in the terminal.
I am using OS 10.3.2 and just installed Fink (so I presume it is the latest version).
"Fink list" shows Information about 1117 packages but octave is not there.
"sudo apt-get update" partially works but has the following errors

Any help would be appreciated.
