Alexander,

I think I have things working now.  The distinctions between octave, octave382 
and 'sudo apt-get install octave382-dev=3.8.2-4 octave382=3.8.2-4' (recommended 
by fink when it 'Could not resolve inconsistent dependencies!' were lost on 
this newbie, but I seem to have muddled through.

Thanks for all your help.  

Jim
